False. Bleeding Kansas was the result of the implementation of popular sovereignty in the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854, which allowed the residents of those territories to decide for themselves whether to allow slavery. This led to violent conflicts between pro-slavery and anti-slavery settlers as they rushed to Kansas to influence the decision, resulting in the period known as Bleeding Kansas. The act did not repeal popular sovereignty; rather, it introduced it, which exacerbated tensions and conflicts over the issue of slavery.
