Johnson's plan for Reconstruction differed from Lincoln's in that it was more lenient toward the Southern states. While Lincoln advocated for a 10% plan that required a relatively modest percentage of voters in seceded states to take an oath of allegiance for readmission, Johnson offered a broader amnesty and quick restoration of state governments with minimal requirements. Additionally, Johnson's plan did not include strong protections for newly freed African Americans, which contrasted sharply with Lincoln's intentions to ensure their rights and integration into society. This leniency and lack of safeguards led to significant backlash and conflict with Congress, particularly among Radical Republicans.
