The bill you are referring to is the Wade-Davis Bill, proposed in 1864 during the Reconstruction era. It required a majority of white male citizens in a Confederate state to take a loyalty oath before that state could be readmitted to the Union. This bill was more stringent than President Abraham Lincoln's Ten Percent Plan and aimed to ensure that only those loyal to the Union would participate in the new state governments. However, it was pocket-vetoed by Lincoln and never became law.

In 1868, Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, North Carolina and South Carolina were readmitted to the Union. Georgia, however, promptly forced all the black Americans out of their state legislature, which forced the U.S. Government to reinstate martial law. It was once again admitted back into the Union in 1870 along with the final former Confederate states of Texas, Virginia and Mississippi.
