The tougher 1850 Fugitive Slave Act was an economical measure to have valuable slaves who escaped to the North to be returned. There were bounties for doing so and penalties for not following the law. It was political in that it brought the political issue of slavery to the non-slave North. Even President-elect Lincoln promised to enforce it. And, by having escaped slaves returned, it strengthened the social structure of the South. It also kept the North "white".
What was the importance of the Fugitive slave Act of 1850?
The importance of the Fugitive Slave Act was because slaves kept running away from their masters and well they wanted them back. The Fugitive slave act was that you could bring back your slaves no matter where they are. Some Northern states declared the Personal Liberty Laws which meant that there would be a trial that would declare if a slave could be moved. The Missouri Supreme Court voluntarily transported the slaves to free states and that automatically made them free slaves. To make it simple, the Fugitive Slave Act dealt with slaves who ran away without their master's consent. Hope that helped! If it didn't then just go on Google or something. :)
