Because of support by representatives
The Fugitive Slave Law.
Henry Clay proposed a series of compromises to resolve the deadlock over California's statehood in 1850. His plan included admitting California as a free state, while also creating the territories of New Mexico and Utah with the choice of slavery to be decided by popular sovereignty. Additionally, Clay proposed the abolition of the slave trade in Washington, D.C., and a stricter Fugitive Slave Law to appease Southern interests. This compromise aimed to maintain the balance between free and slave states and reduce sectional tensions.
The Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854, made the use of Congressional compromises unnecessary. Voters in territories could vote on the issue of slavery before the territory petitioned for statehood. What remained from the 1850 compromise was the Fugitive Slave Act. Even in 1860, president-elect Lincoln promised to enforce this law as long as it existed.
The Compromise of 1850.

Henry Clay's role in the Fugitive Slave Law was to renew the countries slave attitude.
It was the great compromise
Millard Fillmore supported this compromise and signed it into law. It did little to settle the slavery issues it was designed to settle.
The Missori Compromise
Linda Douglas Law has written: 'The interaction of synthetic polymers with soils and clays'
It allowed California to join the USA as free soil. But to get this law passed, Congress had to make a big show of appeasing the South by enforcing the Fugitive Slave Act, which was enormously unpopular in the North, arousing new interest in Abolitionism.
Speaker of the House of Representatives, Henry Clay, who came from the boarder state of Kentucky, mediated between the North and the South, concerning the territory of Missouri becoming a state. From the Missouri Compromise, that became law in March of 1820: Missouri became a slave state, and Maine would enter as a free state. In addition, the territory that remained from the Louisiana Purchase was divided in two along the line 36 degrees 30 minutes latitude. With the exception of Missouri, slavery was prohibited in states north of that line.

The Fugitive Slave Law.
He instated the Common Law and made fair trials avaliable to everyone.
The Fugitive Slave Law was included in the Compromise of 1850, a package of five bills passed by the United States Congress.
Basically the Missouri Compromise of 1850 was a fair compromise. One problem for Northern abolitionists was that the Compromise ushered in the Fugitive Slave Act. They were outraged that the new compromise included this law.
