Civil Rights Act of 1964 - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔The Civil Rights Act of 1964 is a

landmark piece of civil rights legislation that prohibits discrimination on the basis

of race, color, religion, gender or national origin with regard to a wide range of

matters.




The CRA of 1964 passed the House of Representatives by a vote of 290-130. It

passed the Senate in June 1964 by a vote of 73-27 and was then signed into law by

President Lyndon Johnson on July 2, 1964.

Title VII - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Title VII applies to all companies that employ 15 or

more employees.

Title VII: (a) It shall be an unlawful employment practice for an employer—




to fail or refuse to hire or to discharge any individual, or otherwise to discriminate

against any individual with respect to his compensation, terms, conditions, or

privileges of employment, because of such individual's race, color, religion, sex, or

national origin; or




to limit, segregate, or classify his employees or applicants for employment in any

way which would deprive or tend to deprive any individual of employment

opportunities or otherwise adversely affect his status as an employee, because of

such individual's race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.

42 USC §2000e-2




Later Amendments to Title VII:

(including emotional distress) and punitive damages, allows plaintiffs to recover
