civil rights act of 1964
after enactment of the civil rights act of 1866 by overriding a presidential veto, some members of congress supported the fourteenth amendment in order to eliminate doubts about the constitutionality of the civil rights act of 1866, or to ensure that no subsequent congress could later repeal or alter the main provisions of that act. thus, the citizenship clause in the fourteenth amendment parallels citizenship language in the civil rights act of 1866, and likewise the equal protection clause parallels nondiscrimination language in the 1866 act; the extent to which other clauses in the fourteenth amendment may have incorporated elements of the civil rights act of 1866 is a matter of continuing debate.
