Southern congressmen opposed James Tallmadge’s proposed
amendments to the Missouri statehood bill in 1819 because the amendments would
have made Missouri a free state. This made the amendments controversial and a
threat to sectional political harmony which was essential to achieve consensus.
Increasing the amount of well nourished workers for the factories during the industrial revolution
I think the answer is between b and c. But the answer that I heard of in history class would be C. The fact that immigrants took away high paying jobs from union members.
Hope this helps!!
