The three of Lincoln's controversial actions during his presidency were the following: Stopping the New York Draft riots, D) suspending habeas corpus, and F) arresting Southern sympathizers.
New York riots were protests in New York from July 13 to 16, 1863, du to the new laws passed by Congress to draft people to be part of the Union Army in the Civil War. The problem was that the protests became race riots where black people and whites confronted and violently attacked each other.
Another controversial action was that President Lincoln suspended the Habeas Corpus because he had the power to do the Constitution. During wartime, he had the faculty to suspend it. That allowed him to arrest many people suspected of being supporters of the Confederate Army.
