By Robert McNamara. The Emancipation Proclamation was a document signed into law by President Abraham Lincoln on January 1, 1863 freeing the slaves then held in the states in rebellion to the United States.nd as a practical matter, the slaves in the Confederacy were not free until the Union Army took possession of a region. The Emancipation Proclamation was issued as part of the presidentâs role as commander-in-chief during wartime, and was not a law in the sense of being passed by the U.S. Congress.
How did the emancipation proclamation effect the north? Chiefly and most urgently, it saved it from the threat of British intervention on the side of the Confederates. (Free nations abroad could no longer do this without looking pr â¦ o-slavery themselves.)
