During the years immediately following the Civil War, President Andrew Johnson clashed repeatedly with the Republican-controlled Congress over reconstruction of the defeated South. Johnson vetoed legislation that Congress passed to protect the rights of those who had been freed from slavery. Both Lincoln and Johnson's plan wanted a quick re-admission for the South. Johnson's plan wasn't as willing to give as much freedom to newly free slaves as Lincolns was. Johnson's plan gave less protection to freed slaves then the Radical Republican's plan.
Explanation:
States had to ratify the 13th & 14th amendment, and enacted Military Control of Reconstruction with the Military Reconstruction Act. Radical plan wanted to punish the south, while Lincoln and Johnson wanted to reunite the union as quickly as possible.
