The 13th Amendment was necessary because the Emancipation Proclamation, issued by President Abraham Lincoln in January of 1863, did not end slavery entirely; those enslaved in border states had not been freed. ... The 13th Amendment forever abolished slavery as an institution in all U.S. states and territories
