The Congressional Reconstruction plan was more focused on protecting the political rights of African Americans. Unlike the plans of Abraham Lincoln and Andrew Johnson, which were generally more lenient towards the South and did not prioritize the protection of African American rights, Congressional Reconstruction included measures aimed at ensuring civil rights and suffrage for freed slaves.
