In 1865, Johnson implemented a plan a plan of Reconstruction.

Key components of that plan were to:

1. Pardon all white southerners who took an oath of allegiance to the Union (except Confederate leaders and wealthy people)

2. Brought state conventions which established new governments

3. Refuse to pay for Confederate debts

4. Abolish slavery

5. Repudiate the secession

6. Appoint provisional governors

He offered no roles to blacks in the politics of the South. Nearly all the land which were in the governments' hands were returned to the pre-war owners. Old Southern elite was to return to power, including those who were active in the Confederate government and the army.
