The Reconstruction Acts of 1867 and 1868 defined how the Southern States would be readmitted to the Union. The bills were written by the Radical Republicans. Radical Republicans were committed to enfranchisement and equal rights for freedmen. The rebel states were divided into five military districts. The states had to write new constitutions that protect the freedmen's right to vote. Each state had to ratify the 14th Amendment.
