President Andrew Johnson's plan for the South, known as Presidential Reconstruction, aimed to quickly reintegrate Southern states into the Union after the Civil War. It allowed Southern states to establish new governments with minimal requirements, such as ratifying the 13th Amendment. However, Johnson's lenient approach faced criticism for failing to protect the rights of freed slaves and ultimately led to conflicts with Congress, which sought a more stringent Reconstruction policy. His plan resulted in the rapid reestablishment of white supremacy in the South.
