(PLEASE ANSWER ASAP) Which of these actions did President Lincoln take at the beginning of the Civil War?
Answers:
He declared martial law throughout the nation.
He imprisoned congressional representatives from the South.
He issued a declaration of war without the consent of Congress.
He used his emergency powers to suspend the writ of habeas corpus. **
I'm guessing the last one but I'm not sure because I can't find this anywhere in my lesson.
