Southerners wanted Congress to pass laws that would require northern states to return enslaved people who had fled to the North. They sought the enforcement of a strong Fugitive Slave Law, which would mandate the return of escaped enslaved individuals to their owners.

The debate over this issue heightened tensions between the North and South leading up to the Civil War.
Enslaved Africans in the North generally experienced different conditions compared to those in the South due to the region's economic structure and social climate. In the North, slavery was less prevalent and often involved smaller numbers of enslaved people, who were more likely to work in households or skilled trades rather than on large plantations. Additionally, Northern states began gradual emancipation processes in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, leading to a decline in slavery, whereas the South relied heavily on the plantation system and the labor of enslaved Africans for agricultural production. Consequently, enslaved individuals in the North often had slightly more opportunities for legal recourse and eventual freedom compared to their counterparts in the South.
