This was an agreement saying that no slavery shall be contained in any part of the land  called as a result from the Mexican-American war.

This is the results of the compromise: they admitted CA as a free state, they let Utah and NM territories decide if they wante slaves, it ended slave trade in Washington DC, but slaverholders could still keep the slaves that they have, and it also included a strong fugitive slave law which captured runaway slaves.]]> 2018-04-30 18:50:45 UTC https://padlet.com/haylee_applegate/xmc1ewhhpu8q/wish/256663885 haylee_applegate https://padlet.com/haylee_applegate/xmc1ewhhpu8q/wish/256815889 Senator, Stephen Douglas introduced a bill that would divide the land west of Missouri into 2 territories, Kansas and Nebraska.
