Andrew Johnson opposed funding to help freed slaves primarily because he believed that the federal government should not be responsible for their welfare. He argued that the southern states should manage their own affairs and that providing aid to former slaves would undermine their independence and self-sufficiency. Johnson also held a view that the Reconstruction efforts should prioritize restoring the Union over direct assistance to freedmen.
