False. While Abraham Lincoln is often recognized for his role in the abolition of slavery, particularly through the Emancipation Proclamation, his views on slavery evolved over time. He was initially more focused on preventing the expansion of slavery into new territories rather than outright abolition. It wasn't until later in his presidency that he fully embraced abolition as a fundamental goal.
Lincoln remained a staunch abolitionist throughout his life.
