Why was the reconstruction act of 1867 so important

History
1 answer:
eduard3 years ago
6 0

The reconstruction act of 1867 was important because among other things, black people, including those who had recently been freed  received the right to vote, hold political offices, and become judges and police chiefs.

They held positions that formerly belonged to Southern Democrats. Many in the South were aghast. President Johnson vetoed all the radical initiatives but congress (republicans) overrode him each time. It was the Radical Republicans who impeached President Johnson in 1868. The senate by a single vote, failed to convict him but his power to hinder radical reform was finished.

The Bank of the United States proposed by Hamilton is correctly
kobusy [5.1K]

The features of the Bank of United States according to Hamilton were all the above except the bank <u>would be a </u><u>private institution </u><u>with the </u><u>government </u><u>a </u><u>major stockholder. </u>

The Bank of the United States:

  • Would issue paper money.
  • Would advise the government on investment.
  • Would keep and circulate federal funds.

Hamilton however, wanted the federal government to only have a minority stake in the Bank and not a majority as he felt this would ensure a better oversight of the bank.

In conclusion, option B is correct.
