The Radical Republicans had a plan for Reconstruction which involved giving full citizenship rights to freed African Americans. They greatly opposed President Johnson's plan for Reconstruction, and eventually had him impeached for refusing to carry out laws passed by Congress. He was replaced by Ulysses S. Grant in 1868.
