Review (you don’t have to write this) Politics in the United States are plagued by the issue of slavery Why was slavery such a major issue in the United States at the time? Acquisition (gaining or receiving something) of new territory makes issue worse Past solutions to the slavery issue: Three-fifths Compromise Missouri Compromise

By % of all slaves lived in the South. By the 1840s nearly all Northern states had outlawed slavery New territory in the west raised the question of the expansion of slavery

How would the US deal with this new debate? Compromise of 1850: Passed in order to admit California as a free state Not all opposition was political: Harriet Beecher Stowe’s novel Uncle Tom’s Cabin was a scathing critique of slavery Parts of the Compromise of 1850: California admitted as a free state (1850) Extra territory given to Texas Slavery in New Mexico and Utah to be decided by popular sovereignty Fugitive Slave Act upheld Slavery outlawed in Washington DC

Kansas-Nebraska Act Illinois Congressman Stephen Douglas wanted a railroad to the west to run from Chicago This required that the Western territories be opened for settlement Proposed the territory be divided into Kansas and Nebraska, and the slavery issued should be decided by Popular Sovereignty

Republicans Northern Democrats, Whigs, and Free- Soilers joined forces in 1854 in Rippon, Wisconsin. In July of 1854 the Republican party is formally created in Jackson, Michigan
