Answer;

The congress responded to the black codes in the following ways;

-Congress refused to seat the Southern representatives

-Congress overrode President Johnson and passed the Civil Rights Act of 1866

-A Joint Committee on Reconstruction was established to investigate the situation in the South and reported that the Southern states were in a state of civil disorder, and had therefore not held valid elections.

-The Fourteenth Amendment was passed by Congress

-A follow-up Freedmen's Bureau Bill was passed by Congress giving additional rights to ex-slaves

-Reconstruction Acts were passed over President Johnson's veto "...to provide for the more efficient government of the Rebel States"

Explanation;

The Black Codes were a series of statutes and laws enacted in 1865 and 1866 by the legislatures of the Southern states following the end of the Civil War at the beginning of the Reconstruction Era. Public laws that economized restricted minorities' civil rights
