The main two points of Johnson’s Reconstruction Plan was write a new State Constitution and ratify the 13th Amendment.

President Johnson’s Reconstruction Plan was different than Lincoln’s plan, he was more favorable for the Southern demands. He stated that the Southern States should write a new constitution, elect a new government and ratify the 13th Amendment. But eventually, Johnson let the Southern States restrict the voting rights of African Americans which led to the Black Codes, that were a series of laws that restricted a series of African American rights.
