Question
choose whether each statement describes president johnson’s reconstruction plan, the congressional plan, or both.
this plan allowed 10 out of 11 seceded states back into the union before congress reconvened in 1861.
this plan became the plan that was ultimately followed.
this plan established military districts in the south.
this plan included the reconstruction act of 1867.
this plan required abolition of slavery.
this plan required seceded states to set up new state governments.
this plan required voting rights for all adult males in seceded states.
To solve this, we analyze each statement based on knowledge of Johnson's Reconstruction Plan and the Congressional (Radical Republicans') Plan:
1. "This plan allowed 10 out of 11 seceded states back into the Union before Congress reconvened in 1861."
- Johnson’s Plan was lenient and allowed quick readmission. Congress reconvened in 1866 (not 1861, likely a typo), but Johnson’s Plan facilitated rapid readmission.
- Johnson’s Plan: ✔️; Congressional Plan: ❌
2. "This plan became the plan that was ultimately followed."
- The Congressional (Radical) Plan, with military districts and stricter requirements, became the dominant Reconstruction approach.
- Johnson’s Plan: ❌; Congressional Plan: ✔️
3. "This plan established military districts in the South."
- The Congressional Reconstruction Act of 1867 divided the South into 5 military districts. Johnson opposed this.
- Johnson’s Plan: ❌; Congressional Plan: ✔️
4. "This plan included the Reconstruction Act of 1867."
- The Reconstruction Act of 1867 was a key part of the Congressional (Radical) Plan. Johnson vetoed it (but Congress overrode).
- Johnson’s Plan: ❌; Congressional Plan: ✔️
5. "This plan required abolition of slavery."
- Both plans required abolition (13th Amendment was already ratified, and readmission required accepting abolition).
- Johnson’s Plan: ✔️; Congressional Plan: ✔️
6. "This plan required seceded states to set up new state governments."
- Both plans required seceded states to form new governments (Johnson’s with leniency, Congressional with stricter rules).
- Johnson’s Plan: ✔️; Congressional Plan: ✔️
7. "This plan required voting rights for all adult males in seceded states."
- The Congressional Plan (via Reconstruction Acts) required black male suffrage. Johnson’s Plan did not; it left voting to states (many reimposed restrictions).
- Johnson’s Plan: ❌; Congressional Plan: ✔️
Final Table (with checks):
| Statement | President Johnson’s Plan | Congressional Plan |
|---|---|---|
| This plan became the plan that was ultimately followed. | ❌ | ✔️ |
| This plan established military districts in the South. | ❌ | ✔️ |
| This plan included the Reconstruction Act of 1867. | ❌ | ✔️ |
| This plan required abolition of slavery. | ✔️ | ✔️ |
| This plan required seceded states to set up new state governments. | ✔️ | ✔️ |
| This plan required voting rights for all adult males in seceded states. | ❌ | ✔️ |
(Note: For the first statement, "1861" is likely a typo for "1866"—Congress reconvened in December 1866 to confront Johnson’s Reconstruction.)
