Answer:

The proclamation first discussed in 1862, and he issued the final Emancipation Proclamation draft on January 1st, 1863.

Step-by-step explanation:

As America approached the third year of the Civil War President decided to issue the final Emancipation Proclamation. The Emancipation Proclamation was only applicable in the rebellious states. The proclamation declared all persons held as slaves to be freed and henceforward not bound to their master. President Lincoln waited till the Union victory in Antietam to gather support and declared the proclamation in the Confederate that freed the slaves. In other words, the proclamation caused the South to lose the war as they lost their right upon their slaves.
