Why did Stephan Douglas support the Kensas-Nebraska Act and why was that a problem for those who did not like slavery?

Stephen Douglas supported the Kansas-Nebraska Act because he believed in popular sovereignty, allowing new territories to decide on the issue of slavery for themselves.

This effectively opened up the possibility for slavery to expand into territories where it had previously been prohibited.
