It was a struggle between the ANTISLAVERY and the PROSLAVERY
Because it repealed the Missouri Compromise
The Kansas-Nebraska Act thus brought about a fundamental shift in U.S. politics. It ended the second version of the two-party system, which had pitted Whigs against Democrats. It led to the creation of the third version of the two-party system, featuring the Democrats and Republicans as the dominant political parties in which formed along sectional lines and worsened tensions between the North and the South by turning every national election into a contest between sections instead of just a contest between parties.
It was a response to the black codes and the neo-slavery system created by unrepentant southern legislatures.

The Kansas-Nebraska Act also led to "Bleeding Kansas," a mini civil war that erupted in Kansas in 1856. Northerners and Southerners flooded Kansas in 1854 and 1855, determined to convert the future state to their view on slavery.

Kansas-Nebraska Act!
Slavery, and the manifest destiny which was a belief that the US must expand led to Kansas-Nebraska Act of succession. Also the views of Stephen A. Douglas played a part.
What started it was the Kansas- Nebraska Act of 1854 which led to poular soveirgnty and popular soveirgty led to The Bloodshed.
The violence in Kansas, known as "Bleeding Kansas," resulted from clashes between pro-slavery and anti-slavery forces over the issue of whether Kansas would enter the Union as a free or slave state. The Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854, which allowed popular sovereignty to determine the state's status, led to a flood of settlers on both sides, resulting in violent conflicts and bloodshed. This period marked a precursor to the larger tensions that would eventually lead to the American Civil War.
The Kansas-Nebraska Act.
The Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 was primarily written for the state of Kansas. This act allowed for the territories of Kansas and Nebraska to decide whether they would allow slavery based on popular sovereignty. It ultimately led to violence and conflict in Kansas known as "Bleeding Kansas."
i believe it was President Pierce. Because the Kansas Nebraska Act happened before "Bleeding Kansas" led by John Brown. BTW John Brown is a terrorist who deserved hanging, not a fan of John Brown.
The Kansas and Nebraska Act, passed in 1854, allowed for the potential admission of two new states: Kansas and Nebraska. Both territories were seeking statehood, with Kansas eventually becoming a free state and Nebraska becoming a slave state. This provision, known as "popular sovereignty," led to increased tensions and the eventual outbreak of violence in Kansas over the issue of slavery.
The Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 allowed settlers in those territories to decide the issue of slavery through popular sovereignty, meaning the residents could vote on whether to allow slavery within their borders. This effectively repealed the Missouri Compromise of 1820 which had banned slavery in territories north of a certain latitude. The act led to violent clashes between pro-slavery and anti-slavery settlers, intensifying tensions over the issue of slavery in the United States.
