The Civil Rights Act of 1866 (14 Stat. 27–30, enacted April 9, 1866, reenacted 1870) was the first United States federal law to define citizenship and affirm that all citizens are equally protected by the law. It was mainly intended, in the wake of the American Civil War, to protect the civil rights of persons of African descent born in or brought to the United States. John Bingham and other congressmen argued that Congress did not yet have sufficient constitutional power to enact this law. Following passage of the Fourteenth Amendment in 1868, Congress ratified the 1866 Act in 1870.

  • Il Civil Rights Act del 1866 è una legge federale degli Stati Uniti d'America che dichiara che chiunque nato negli Stati Uniti e non soggetto ad alcuna nazione straniera è un cittadino statunitense senza riguardo alla sua razza, colore, precedente condizione di schiavitù o servitù involontaria. È la legge con la quale, dopo la guerra di secessione, fu abolita la schiavitù negli stati confederati e quindi in tutto il territorio degli Stati Uniti. Il Civil Right Act del 1866 fu votato sotto la presidenza di Andrew Johnson e passò nonostante il suo veto. Non si applica agli stranieri, ai diplomatici e ai Nativi americani confinati nelle riserve. (it)
  • Civil Rights Act är en lag i USA från 1866, som gav befriade slavar mer frihet. Lagförslaget introducerades samma år som USA avskaffade slaveriet, 1865, men president Andrew Johnson fällde det i mars 1866 med sitt veto. Civil Rights Act blev sedan den första lagen i USA som trädde i kraft trots presidentens veto, i och med att kongressens båda kamrar godkände lagen med tillräckliga majoriteter. (sv)

  • Le Civil Rights Act de 1866 est une loi fédérale promulguée le 9 avril 1866, première loi des États-Unis à définir la citoyenneté et à affirmer que tous les citoyens sont également protégés par la loi. Il était principalement destiné à protéger les droits civiques des personnes afro-américaines à la suite de la guerre de sécession. Cette loi a été votée par le Congrès en 1865, mais le président Andrew Johnson a mis son veto. En avril 1866, le congrès a de nouveau voté le projet de loi pour soutenir le treizième amendement. Même si Johnson a de nouveau mis son veto, une majorité des deux tiers dans chaque chambre a surmonté le veto et la loi a donc été promulguée. (fr)
