Answer:

"It required private citizens to help runaway slaves escape."

Explanation:

The approval of the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 increased the penalties against fugitive slaves and the people who helped them. Because of this, fugitive slaves tried to leave the United States in general, traveling to Canada or Mexico. During the time that slavery was legal in the United States, approximately 100,000 slaves escaped to freedom.

vlada-n [284]

The answer is D because Texas was a slave state and most of the states in the US weren’t and everyone knew that once Texas annexed into the US they would try having a slave state but the US would end up saying no slaves in the end.
