Explanation: As president Johnson pushed and signed the Civil Rights Act (1964) and especially the Voting Rights Act (1965), which targeted discriminatory voting practices and expanded access to the ballot. The other options describe actions from different eras or laws (Reconstruction amendments, Equal Pay/Great Society, Title IX came later) and are not accurate for Johnson.
