What was contained in the first Proclamation of Amnesty and Reconstruction proposed by US President Lincoln in 1863?
President Lincoln issued the Proclamation of Amnesty and Reconstruction, which outlined a path by which each southern state could rejoin the Union. Under Lincoln's plan a minority of voters (equal to at least 10 percent of those who had cast ballots in the election of 1860) would have to take an oath of allegiance to the Union and accept emancipation. Lincoln hoped through his "10 percent plan" to undermine the Confederacy by establishing pro-Union governments within it.

Why did Abraham Lincoln have the right to pass the emancipation proclamation?
Because he was the President of the United States. In the 1800's, it was much easier for a President to pass a proclamation because there were no lobbyists, there were fewer states, so there were not as many Congressmen or Senators to object to any proposed laws or proclamations. Also the Emancipation was issued during the civil war, the war granted Lincoln emergency powers and through these powers he was able to issue the proclamation.

How did the proclamation of Amnesty and Reconstruction differ from the Wade Davis Bill?
The Proclamation of Amnesty and Reconstruction, issued by President Abraham Lincoln in 1863, aimed to facilitate the reintegration of Southern states into the Union by offering leniency to those who took an oath of loyalty, with just 10% of voters needed for re-establishing a state government. In contrast, the Wade-Davis Bill, proposed by Congress in 1864, required a stricter approach, mandating that 50% of white male citizens take an "ironclad" oath of loyalty before a state could be readmitted, and it also sought to safeguard the rights of freedmen. The Wade-Davis Bill reflected a more punitive attitude towards the South and emphasized Congressional control over Reconstruction, while Lincoln's plan was more conciliatory and aimed at quicker reconciliation. Ultimately, Lincoln pocket-vetoed the Wade-Davis Bill, highlighting the conflict between his administration and Congress over Reconstruction policy.
