The Northern Whigs, at their apex in the 1850s, argued against the expansion of slavery into the territories acquired from the Mexican-American War. They believed that the spread of slavery would undermine free labor and threaten the economic opportunities for white workers. This stance was central to their platform, leading to the formation of the Republican Party, which sought to promote free soil and prevent the influence of slaveholding interests in new states. Their anti-slavery sentiment was a critical factor in the political landscape leading up to the Civil War.
