Many Radical Republicans in Congress strongly opposed President Andrew Johnson's Reconstruction plan. They believed it was too lenient toward the Southern states and failed to protect the rights of newly freed African Americans. This opposition ultimately led to a significant political clash between Johnson and Congress, culminating in his impeachment in 1868.

Because Johnson's plan was implemented when Congress was out of session. Power play, pure and simple. jesslyn bigelow answered this(:
The South welcomed Andrew Johnson's reconstruction plan because it neglected the rights of former slaves more or less, and he granted over 1,000 pardons to former Confederate leaders during his time in office.
The reconstruction plan that was effectively killed by a pocket veto was the Congressional Reconstruction plan of 1867, specifically the Reconstruction Act of 1867. President Andrew Johnson, who opposed many aspects of the plan, did not sign it into law and instead allowed it to expire by taking no action within the 10-day window, effectively preventing its implementation. This act aimed to establish military governance in the South and ensure civil rights for freed slaves, but Johnson's inaction stymied these efforts. The pocket veto exemplified the ongoing conflict between Johnson and Congress over the direction of Reconstruction.
