The article from the Northwest Ordinance that represented a new step by the US government was Article 6, which addressed the prohibition of slavery in the Northwest Territory. This marked a significant shift in policy, as it established a legal framework for the exclusion of slavery in new territories, setting a precedent for the future governance of western lands and contributing to the broader national debate over slavery. This move underscored a commitment to promote freedom and establish a foundation for future states that would not permit slavery.
