The four Reconstruction Acts, passed by Congress in 1867, were known as the First Reconstruction Act, the Second Reconstruction Act, the Third Reconstruction Act, and the Fourth Reconstruction Act. These acts aimed to establish military governance in the Southern states, ensure the civil rights of freedmen, and set the conditions for re-admittance of the Southern states into the Union. They required states to create new constitutions guaranteeing voting rights to African American men and to ratify the Fourteenth Amendment.
