Roger Sherman of Connecticut proposed what was called the Connecticut Plan or the Great Compromise. It provided for a two-house Congress. In the Senate, states would have equal representation, but in the House of Representatives, each state would be represented according to the size of its population. ]]> 2018-12-18 14:15:01 UTC https://padlet.com/membrino02/kxp5g772dpw6/wish/315521663 miyajae47 https://padlet.com/membrino02/kxp5g772dpw6/wish/315522405  Three-Fifths Compromise was an agreement to count three-fifths of a state's slaves in apportioning Representatives, Presidential electors, and direct taxes.

It was finalized after heated debates during the drafting of the United States Constitution in 1787. During negotiations, the urban northern states and the southern agricultural slave-owning states realized that some fundamental differences would have to be put aside, even for just a short time, in order to move forward with the Constitution. ]]> 2018-12-18 14:47:21 UTC https://padlet.com/membrino02/kxp5g772dpw6/wish/315536272 miyajae47 https://padlet.com/membrino02/kxp5g772dpw6/wish/315537772 Federalists (people supporting a constitution) argued that the Constitution did not need a bill of rights, because the people and the states kept any powers not given to the federal government. Anti-Federalists (people against a constitution) felt that a bill of rights was necessary to safeguard individual liberty.
