    Abraham Lincoln vetoed the Wade-Davis Bill of 1864 because he felt it imposed a harsh punishment on the Confederate states that rebelled from the Union. Radical Republicans proposed the bill to punish the Southern states during the Reconstruction phase after the Civil War ended.

    Also, the fellow Republicans believed that it betrayed the party.
