Many Southern Whites had opposed Reconstruction from the start. They wanted to regain the wealth and power that they had before the Civil War. They also wanted to limit African-American's freedoms and rights. Some asked the courts to take back the land that had been given to freedmen.There is your answer. You are welcome. -Anonymous. 3/15/12.
As the Reconstruction era passed, Southern whites became back in control of the old South. They passed all types of "laws" designed to prevent Blacks form voting. This enabled whites to regain the political power they lost right after the US Civil War.

That is the responsibility of the president and DOD (previously the War Department) and has alway been that way since the US Constitution was ratified.There is nothing for Congress to regain!The Congress has the right to declare war but not the right to control how it is conducted once declared.

To regain control of southern politics
The Amnesty Act of 1872 restored voting rights and political eligibility to most former Confederates in the South. This led to the reintegration of former Confederates into Southern politics and allowed them to regain political influence. As a result, Democrats, who largely represented white Southerners, gained power in the region, leading to the end of Reconstruction and the establishment of white supremacy in Southern politics.
