President Lincoln advocated for a relatively lenient approach to reintegrating the South, emphasizing reconciliation and rapid restoration of the Union through measures like the Ten Percent Plan, which allowed Southern states to rejoin once 10% of their voters pledged allegiance to the Union. In contrast, President Andrew Johnson adopted a more lenient stance than many Republicans favored, but he also implemented requirements that included the ratification of the 13th Amendment and the repudiation of Confederate debts.
