Hello!
The Fugitive Slave Act required slaves who had escaped to be returned to their owners. This increased sectional tensions because it still applied in free states (states that did not support slavery and/or abolished it). This meant that free states also needed to return slaves to their owners if they were caught. Because free states and slave states had different views and opinions on the matter, it caused tensions between them.
I hope this helps you! Have lovely days!
