The issue for this controversy is that eas that the entrance of the state of California to the Union as a free slave would change the legislative balance, favoring the Northern, pro-abolitionists states. California was part of the territories gained by the United States after the Mexican-American War. There were many struggles in Congress about the issue of slavery and that is when Congress ended up with the Compromise of 1850.
