Identify and describe the importance of one major piece of Reconstruction legislation.

History
1 answer:
kotegsom [21]3 years ago
5 0

I would also add the revenge aspect of Reconstruction legislation.  Many Northerners wanted to punish the South before allowing them back into the Union.  There was quite a bit of debate/arguing over the ease vs. difficulty states should face in being restored their place in the U.S.

The amendments became a part of the punishment, but also the oaths taken by former soldiers would play a part in that as well, as well as legal action taken against political leaders, allowing former politicians back into office, etc.

Why was a weak national government created under the Articles of Confederation
Gwar [14]
The articles gave the government no separation of powers. The government was too weak, the Articles left much of the power to the states (if I remember correctly, states basically went by their own state constitution). Congress didn't have the power to tax. To change the Articles, it had to be decided unanimously by all states. Also, 9 out of the 13 states had to approve any major law before it was passed and Congress couldn't regulate commerce. There was no president to lead, no established court system, and every state had only one vote in congress. Basically, the articles created no separate executive department to carry out and enforce the acts of Congress and no national court system to interpret the meaning of laws.
