The proposal of House Speaker allowed the Missouri Compromise of 1820 resolve the slave and free state problem facing the US Congress. His deal which was accepted, split part of Massachusetts, allowing for a new state, Maine to be created and as a free state. This allowed for slave vs free to be balanced as then Missouri could enter as a slave state.
