Your quotation form DiLorenzo's book states that Thaddeus Stevens was a Senator. Stevens was a Representative, chairmain of the House Ways and Means Committee. An author who displays such ignorance about his subject is not an authority to be cited.

DiLorenzo's description of what happened in the Senate is accurate.
