There were several Congressmen who objected to Missouri joining because C. Missouri wanted to join the Union as a slave state, upsetting the balance in Congress.

<h3>Statehood of Missouri </h3>
  • Missouri wanted to join the Union only as a slave state.
  • Missouri was above the Missouri Compromise line.

States above this line were to be free states and those below were to be slave states. Some congressmen therefore did not want Missouri to be a slave state, in free territory.

In conclusion, option C is correct.
