This caused an uproar in Congress. Although the majority of Republicans in Congress backed the president's Reconstruction program, some Republicans were worried that the planter aristocracy would be reinstated and that the freedmen would be re-enslaved.

The Radical Republicans rejected Lincoln's proposal because they felt it was too kind to the South. To conservatives, Lincoln's Reconstruction plan was too soft since, in their opinion, the South was responsible for initiating the war and needed to be punished. Radical Republicans sought to dominate the Reconstruction process, change Southern culture, dissolve the planter class, redistribute land, and create industry.

“‘The Machine.'” 1864 political cartoon, which included many major political figures during the Civil War, criticized Lincoln's government.

The Radical Republicans succeeded to influence many centrist voters and quickly gained influence in Congress after the end of the Civil War. The Republicans approved a new measure in response to the "Wade-Davis Bill" in the summer of 1864. This new law would make it more difficult to rejoin the union. To be readmitted, the majority of the state had to swear a loyalty pledge, not simply ten percent. Lincoln subsequently vetoed this revised measure.
