At the re-convening of the Republican (nationalist) 37th Constitutional Congress (elected in accordance with (Article I, Section 3 [Clause 1]), Republican President Abraham Lincoln, of the united States, proposes three amendments to the Constitution for the united States:
- A 13th amendment that would require Congress to abolish slavery everywhere in the compulsory Union by January 1, 1900;
- A 14th amendment that would compensate slave owners for emancipation;
- A 15th amendment that would authorize Congress to deport all freedmen from the united States to the Caribbean, Central America, or west Africa.
“I cannot make it better known than it already is, that I strongly favor colonization.”
NOTE: Two months previous Lincoln had announced his intentions to free all slaves in those unoccupied areas of the Confederate States (a voluntary union) that were still struggling for their independence, which was now exactly one month away.
