how did lincoln respond to the wade-davis bill

Sagot :

Lincoln didn't agree with this bill because he thought it was too harsh. He had a more lenient Ten Percent Plan, which allowed southerners still hold/run for office,unlike the Wade-Davis Bill. Unfortunately Lincoln was assassinated before the veto was official, and the Ten Percent Plan was put in effect.
