Answer 1

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

The Kansas-Nebraska Act was a law passed in 1854, which allowed the settlers who would occupy Louisiana to decide whether slavery would be used and legalized in that territory or not. This was a very controversial law, causing many disagreements between northerners and southerners, as it reinforced government irresponsibility towards slaves, being one of the influential factors of civil war.
