The accurate statement regarding the Three-Fifths Compromise and the issue of slavery is:

D. The compromise allowed the slave trade to continue for the next 20 years.

The Three-Fifths Compromise, reached during the Constitutional Convention of 1787, determined that for the purposes of representation in Congress, enslaved individuals would be counted as three-fifths of a person. It did not ban slavery, nor did it pertain to the return of escaped slaves or the timeline of slavery's abolition. Additionally, the compromise included a provision that allowed the slave trade to continue until 1808.
