Why did Southern senators initially block the organization of the Kansas and Nebraska territories?

Southern senators initially blocked the organization of the Kansas and Nebraska territories because they feared that the establishment of these territories would lead to the expansion of free states, thereby threatening the balance of power between free and slave states in Congress. The issue was particularly contentious due to the Missouri Compromise, which had previously restricted slavery in those regions. Southern lawmakers wanted to ensure that any new territories would allow for slavery, leading to the introduction of the Kansas-Nebraska Act, which effectively repealed the Missouri Compromise and allowed settlers to decide the issue of slavery through popular sovereignty.
