  • Le Joint Committee on Reconstruction, également connu sous le nom de Joint Committee of Fifteen, est un comité mixte du 39e Congrès des États-Unis qui joue un rôle majeur dans la reconstruction au lendemain de la guerre civile américaine. Il est créé pour « enquêter sur la situation des États qui ont formé les États soi-disant confédérés d'Amérique, et indiquer s'ils, ou l'un d'entre eux, ont le droit d'être représentés dans l'une ou l'autre chambre du Congrès ». Ce comité rédige également le quatorzième amendement à la Constitution des États-Unis, bien que certains changements aient été apportés par la suite au Congrès. Le comité recommande avec succès que le Congrès refuse de réadmettre les États du Sud à la représentation au Congrès jusqu'à ce qu'ils aient ratifié le quatorzième amendement. (fr)
