Borgerkrigen raser på fjerde år, da USA's præsident, Abraham Lincoln, i 1865 forsøger at samle opbakning til en lovændring, der vil afskaffe slaveriet. Præsidenten finder støtte hos sin loyale udenrigsminister, William Seward, og det reformvenlige kongresmedlem Thaddeus Stevens. Men i Repræsentanternes Hus yder oppositionen voldsom modstand mod det kontroversielle forslag.
