He proposed that California would enter the Union as a free state and New Mexico and Utah territories were allowed to decide whether they wanted to allow slavery or not. His plan also included ending the slave trade in Washington, slaveholders would be able to keep their slaves, but there would no longer be selling and buying slaves. Fortunately Congress approved of the plan.
