The Emancipation Proclamation, issued by President Abraham Lincoln on January 1, 1863, declared the freedom of all enslaved people in the Confederate states as a strategic move during the Civil War. However, it did not immediately end slavery throughout the United States; that milestone was achieved with the passage of the 13th Amendment in 1865.
