Who do you think created this cartoon. What is he saying…
![Page 22: SIMPSON A.P.U.S.H - Home - 1. What was the battle that started …simpsonapush.weebly.com/uploads/8/5/8/0/85805006/... · 2018-11-04 · Freedmen’s Bureau • 1 st experiment in](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022050406/5f83b7052a14962eba543b6a/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Radical Republicans - members of the Republican party that believed that Pres. Johnson was too lenient on the South.
![Page 23: SIMPSON A.P.U.S.H - Home - 1. What was the battle that started …simpsonapush.weebly.com/uploads/8/5/8/0/85805006/... · 2018-11-04 · Freedmen’s Bureau • 1 st experiment in](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022050406/5f83b7052a14962eba543b6a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Radical Republicans want action to stop the South!
• Believed black codes were cruel.• Believed Pres. Johnson not harsh• Radical Republics get a bill in Congress.• Equal rights regardless of race• The Freedman’s Bureau Bill- Johnson vetoes it!!!• Republicans propose another bill- the Civil Rights Bill
of 1866– Defines the 13th amendment– Born here = Citizen– Johnson again vetoes it!!!– Passes over veto
![Page 24: SIMPSON A.P.U.S.H - Home - 1. What was the battle that started …simpsonapush.weebly.com/uploads/8/5/8/0/85805006/... · 2018-11-04 · Freedmen’s Bureau • 1 st experiment in](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022050406/5f83b7052a14962eba543b6a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
The 14th is then proposed• Citizenship for all persons born in the
US• Either grant blacks the right to vote or
reduce representation in Congress• Pres. Johnson fears this Amendment• He goes nation wide speaking on
behalf of democrats...• Democrats loose elections of 1866
(Congress)• Republicans control the House and
senate… now president cant veto their bills!
