Answer: d. Lincoln refused to sign into law.
Explanation:
Abraham Lincoln wanted to reunite the country with as little hassle as possible towards to end of the Civil War and proposed that 10% of the white males in Confederate states take loyalty oaths for their states to be readmitted and also for those states to permanently free enslaved people.
Senator Benjamin F. Wade and Representative Henry Winter Davis thought these requirements too mild and proposed that 50% of males take the loyalty oaths and grant blacks the right to vote. Congress preferred this and passed this bill but President Lincoln vetoed it by refusing to sign.
<u>Answer</u>:
The steps that led to the recruitment of black troops in the Civil War are as follows:
- Military establishment decreeing that war should be fought by white men in 1861
- The congress than decreeing that the war would be fought for the Union and not for abolishing slavery
- Lincoln overruling his generals and Cabinet.
- Black leaders making it a point to enroll regiment of black soldiers, which was refused by Lincoln and his cabinet
- Leading to fear among the masses of a rising slave rebellion
- In order to ensure protection from political attacks on slavery and support the armies on the field
- Black troops enrolled.
