Unjust laws exist; shall we be content to obey them, or shall we endeavor to amend them, and obey them until we have succeeded,

or shall we transgress them at once? Men generally, under such a government as this, think that they ought to wait until they have persuaded the majority to alter them. They think that, if they should resist, the remedy would be worse than the evil. But it is the fault of the government itself that the remedy is worse than the evil. It makes it worse. Why is it not more apt to anticipate and provide for reform? Why does it not cherish its wise minority? Why does it cry and resist before it is hurt? Why does it not encourage its citizens to be on the alert to point out its faults, and do better than it would have them?” Henry David Thoreau, Civil Disobedience 1849

What main reason Congress initially refused to annex texas is supported by the information on this map?
viva [34]

One of the main reasons why Congress did not initially annex Texas is because it would create an imbalance of free and slave states in Congress.

During the early to mid 19th century, the United States was constantly expanding their territory. This was due in large part to the concept of manifest destiny. As the US was spreading their influence, they ran into the problem of whether or not these new territories and states would have the institution of slavery.

Southern states favored new territories and states having slavery while Northern states did not favor slavery in these new territories. The reason behind the Northern states includeds:

1) Influences from the abolitionist movement.

2) Northerners did not want slave states to have more representatives in Congress than they did.

This caused Texas annexation to be delayed, since Texas would be admitted as a slave state. This would throw off the balance of free and slave states represented in Congress, giving slave states the advantage.
