There was no "New Jersey Compromise." It was named for Connecticut. The New Jersey Plan was an alternative representation plan for Congress as it was debated at the Constitutional Convention. Rather than a legislature based on population (the Virginia Plan), it proposed a unicameral legislature with each state being equal with a single representative. Under the "Great Compromise" or Connecticut Compromise, the New Jersey plan became the model for the Senate, and the Virginia Plan for the House of Representatives.
The proposal to form a bicameral congress instead of a unicameral one was proposed in the Virginia Plan. It was drafted by James Madison in 1787.
