The fundamental question addressed in each of the congressional acts – the Missouri Compromise, the Compromise of 1850, and the Kansas-Nebraska Act – was:
Should slave labor be allowed in new states?
These acts were all attempts to address the contentious issue of slavery's expansion into new territories and states as the U.S. expanded westward.
