In 1850, Georgia's leaders, particularly through the Georgia Platform, expressed conditional support for the Compromise of 1850. They emphasized that while they accepted the compromise as a means to preserve the Union, it was crucial for the North to uphold the Fugitive Slave Act and ensure that Southern interests were protected. This stance reflected the state's desire to maintain a balance between North and South and avert the escalating tensions over slavery.
