The Emancipation Proclamation by US President Lincoln was a tactical war decision. As an aside, the Emancipation did not pertain to Union States and Washington DC, which had slavery.

The Emancipation Proclamation was issued primarily for military necessity and to affect the government and public opinion of the foreign powers, particularly those of France and Great Britain.
It was supposed to turn the war into a crusade against slavery. Not many Northerners were impressed by this - as the mid-term elections showed. The Proclamation was issued chiefly to keep Britain and France from aiding the South, as it would make them look pro-slavery themselves.
The Emancipation Proclamation contains language indicating that the freeing of slaves serves military purposes, particularly in its assertion that "that on the first day of January, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-three, all persons held as slaves" in the Confederate states "shall be then, thenceforward, and forever free." This declaration is framed as a wartime measure, intended to weaken the Confederacy by depriving it of its labor force and encouraging enslaved individuals to join the Union Army, thereby bolstering its military strength. Additionally, the Proclamation emphasizes its role as a strategic move to undermine the Confederate war effort.

From the excerpt, it can be concluded that President Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation primarily to weaken the Confederacy's war effort by freeing enslaved individuals in rebellious states.
