The Free Soil Party would have supported the c. Wilmot Proviso, which aimed to ban slavery in any territory acquired from Mexico after the Mexican-American War. They would not have supported the other options (a. Cottonocracy, b. Slave codes, d. Fugitive slave act) as those laws supported or enforced slavery.
