Explanation
The question asks which piece of legislation was passed by Lyndon B. Johnson, known as LBJ, that barred discrimination on grounds of race, gender, ethnicity, or religion, especially in relation to public buildings. The Affordable Care Act (2010), has the keyword 'health' not necessarily dealing with Civil rights, while the Voting Rights Act (1965) specifically focused on preventing racial discrimination in voting. On the other hand, the Civil Rights Act (1964) more broadly prohibited discrimination in public places, provided for the integration of schools, and made employment discrimination illegal. Therefore, the act related to the case specified in the problem corresponds to the Civil Rights Act, 1964.
