The Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854, proposed by Stephen A. Douglas of Illinois, in effect repealed the Missouri Compromise because it allowed the settlers in these two areas to decide whether or not to allow slavery. Since these territories were located north Missouri, they gave southern slaveholders an opportunity that had been closed to them since 1820.
