Answer :

GinnyAnswer
The correct answer is B. The Wade-Davis Bill stated that anyone who had supported the Confederacy would not be allowed to participate in politics in the South. This bill was a more stringent Reconstruction plan compared to President Lincoln's more lenient approach. It required a majority of voters in Confederate states to take an oath of allegiance to the Union before they could reestablish a state government. This bill was passed by Congress but was pocket vetoed by President Lincoln, who believed it was too harsh.
