The Free-Soil Party would have supported the **Wilmot Proviso**. The Wilmot Proviso was an initiative aimed at banning slavery in territories acquired from Mexico during the Mexican-American War. The Free-Soil Party was established on the platform of opposing the expansion of slavery into the western territories.
In contrast, the party would have opposed the Fugitive Slave Act and slave codes, as these laws supported the institution of slavery.
