Out of the choices given, the statement that was NOT a primary motivation for Republicans was that Congressional leaders wanted to restore the Union as quickly as possible. The Democrats wants to restore the Union quickly to get the citizens back to a normal life without war. The correct answer is B. 
I believe the answer is: B) Congressional leaders wanted to restore the Union as quickly as possible.

At that time, the Congressional aware that restoring union would took a lot of time and money. This make them believe that by the time the restoration is dine, the confederates would also regained that power. Because of this, they made southern's reconstruction as their main priority
