The Obama document

The Emancipation Proclamation.
The document that freed all slaves living in states in rebellion against the Union is the Emancipation Proclamation. Issued by President Abraham Lincoln on January 1, 1863, it declared that all enslaved people in Confederate-held territory were to be set free. While it did not immediately free all slaves, it was a significant step toward the abolition of slavery in the United States and altered the character of the Civil War.
