18 St. 39 Min, 2 Jul 1864 Jahr - Congress passed a much stricter plan for reconstruction called the Wade- Davis Bill. 50% of voters would have to sign loyalty oath before a state could return to Union. And anyone who had voluntarily fought for the Confederacy would be barred from voting for delegates to a convention to write a new state constitution. It did not give them the right to vote. It never became law because Lincoln refused to sign it.
