Yes and no. There were 10 years apart from the passage and the war. It was just a contributing factor in the process leading to war.
California. (New Respondent) No, California was to be free - a major decision that needed a big gesture of appeasement for the South. This gesture was the Fugitive Slave Act that brought the civil war a long step closer. I'm not sure it admitted any new slave-states. I think it allowed for the states of Utah and New Mexico to be eligible for slavery under certain conditions when the time came.
Most Northerners opposed the new Fugitive Slave Act because it mandated the return of escaped slaves to their owners, which they believed infringed on individual liberties and moral principles. The law also imposed heavy penalties on those who assisted runaway slaves or refused to cooperate, creating a sense of complicity in the institution of slavery. This heightened tensions between the North and South, as many Northerners felt it forced them to participate in an unjust system. Overall, the Act was seen as a betrayal of Northern values and a significant step backward in the fight against slavery.
Oh honey, just because they made it to the free states doesn't mean they were suddenly living their best life. The Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 made it a real pain in the butt for runaway slaves, allowing slave catchers to hunt them down even in free states. Plus, racism was still alive and well up North, so they had to deal with discrimination and prejudice on top of everything else. It was a tough world out there for those seeking freedom.

The Slave Trade Act of 1807 was enacted by the Parliament of the United Kingdom, effectively abolishing the transatlantic slave trade in British territories. This legislation made it illegal to engage in the slave trade, though it did not end slavery itself. The act was a significant step towards the eventual abolition of slavery, which was achieved in Britain with the Slavery Abolition Act of 1833. Other countries, including the United States and France, took different paths and timelines to address slavery and the slave trade.

The purpose of the Kansas - Nebraska Act was to decide on whether or not the state should be free or slave by popular sovereignty with the average person voting on the decision when the territory applied for statehood. Which destroyed the Compromise of 1825 created by Henry Clay and brought the United States another step closer to Civil War.

If you step closer to the mirror, your image will appear larger and more detailed due to the proximity of the reflective surface. It may also appear distorted if you get too close due to the mirror's curvature or imperfections.
It was certainly a step closer to "one world" or International Government.
