He did this by issuing the Emancipation Proclamation, which was first and foremost, issued a a military tactic, to further quash the Confederacy's power. It was also an opportunity to achieve his goal, to abolish slavery. The Emancipation Proclamation did free slaves in those states, which were not under the Union's command. It did not outlaw slavery, or free slaves in the Border States. The Emancipation Proclamation was also the event, which paved the way to pass the 13th Amendment, which did abolish and outlaw slavery. The 13th Amendment was passed by both Houses, and signed by Abraham Lincoln on February 1, 1865. It was incorporated into the Constitution, when 3/4 of the states ratified it, in December 1865.
