Lincoln's plan to rebuild the South, known as the Ten Percent Plan, aimed for a lenient reconstruction approach. It proposed that a southern state could rejoin the Union once 10% of its voters took an oath of allegiance to the Union and accepted the end of slavery. This plan sought to promote reconciliation and restore the Union quickly, emphasizing forgiveness rather than punishment. However, it faced criticism for being too lenient and was later modified by Congress through the more stringent Wade-Davis Bill.
The 10 Percent Plan was the title of Lincoln's plan for the South's recovery from from the war.
President Lincoln's proposal for reconstruction was called "Lincoln's 10% Plan." It was a plan to reunify the North and South after the War's end.
