Congress took several significant actions to protect the rights of African Americans, particularly during the Reconstruction era following the Civil War. The 13th Amendment abolished slavery, while the 14th Amendment granted citizenship and equal protection under the law to all persons born in the U.S. Additionally, the 15th Amendment aimed to secure voting rights for African American men. Throughout the years, Congress has also enacted various civil rights laws to combat racial discrimination and promote equality.
