The New Jersey Plan, proposed by William Paterson in 1787, aimed to amend the Articles of Confederation rather than replace them. Its main components included a unicameral legislature with equal representation for each state, regardless of population, and the ability for Congress to impose taxes and regulate trade. The plan also called for a multi-person executive branch and a judiciary, ensuring a more balanced federal government while preserving state sovereignty. This plan was a response to the Virginia Plan, which favored larger states with proportional representation.
