The Connecticut Compromise, also known as the Great Compromise, was primarily authored by Roger Sherman and Oliver Ellsworth, both delegates from Connecticut, during the Constitutional Convention of 1787. This compromise resolved the debate between larger and smaller states regarding legislative representation, establishing a bicameral legislature with proportional representation in the House and equal representation in the Senate.
The people that wrote Article 1 of the Constitution were Edmund Rudolph, William Paterson, Oliver Ellsworth, Roger Sherman, and Dr. William Samuel Johnson, due to the fact that Article 1 was made up of the Virginia Plan, the New Jersey Plan, and the Great Compromise.
"The Great Compromise" that made the legislature a bicameral branch.
