To what extent does the U.S. Constitution address the ideals of the Declaration of Independence? (To a great extent, little extent or no extent?
Answer:
Explanation:
As part of the Compromise of 1850, the Fugitive Slave Act was amended and the slave trade in Washington, D.C., was abolished. Furthermore, California entered the Union as a free state and a territorial government was created in Utah.
The Missouri Compromise was struck down as unconstitutional, and slavery and anti-slavery proponents rushed into the territory to vote in favor or against the practice. The rush, effectively led to massacre known as Bleeding Kansas and propelled itself into the very real beginnings of the American Civil War.
Overview
The Compromise of 1850 acted as a temporary truce on the issue of slavery, primarily addressing the status of newly acquired territory after the Mexican-American War.
Under the Compromise, California was admitted to the Union as a free state; the slave trade was outlawed in Washington, D.C., a strict new Fugitive Slave Act compelled citizens of free states to assist in capturing enslaved people; and the new territories of Utah and New Mexico would permit white residents to decide whether to allow slavery.
Ultimately, the Compromise did not resolve the issue of slavery’s expansion; instead, the fiery rhetoric surrounding the Compromise further polarized the North and the South.
The Mexican Cession begs the slavery question
At the end of the Mexican-American War, the United States gained a large piece of western land known as the Mexican Cession.

The Mexican Cession.
The issue of whether to permit slavery in the territories organized in this new land consumed Congress at the end of the 1840s. During the war, Congressman David Wilmot introduced the Wilmot Proviso, a proposal to ban slavery in any new territory acquired from Mexico. The measure passed in the House of Representatives but failed in the Senate.
Congress was also seeking resolutions for several other controversial matters. Antislavery advocates wanted to end the slave trade in the District of Columbia, while proslavery advocates aimed to strengthen fugitive slave laws. But the most pressing problem was California: the many emigrants who had flocked to the territory upon the discovery of gold in the late 1840s had forced the question of its statehood and status as a slave or free state.
The presidential election of 1848 determined which of these issues would be tackled first. Southern Mexican-American war military hero Zachary Taylor was elected president in 1848, much to the satisfaction of southern slaveholders. Although Taylor himself owned more than one hundred slaves, he prioritized national unity over sectional interests. He called on Congress to admit California as a free state.
A ban on slave trading in Washington, DC: Antislavery advocates welcomed Congress’s ban on the slave trade in Washington, DC, although slavery itself continued to be legal in the capital.
Most Americans breathed a sigh of relief over the deal brokered in 1850, choosing to believe it had saved the Union. However, the compromise stood as a temporary truce in an otherwise white-hot sectional conflict. Popular sovereignty paved the way for unprecedented violence in the West over the question of slavery.

Explanation:FOUR GOALS OF PROGRESSIVISM
(Pages 306–309)
What did reformers want?
As the 1900s opened, reformers pushed
for a number of changes. Together their
efforts built the progressive movement.
The progressive movement had four major
goals: (1) to protect social welfare, (2) to
promote moral improvement, (3) to create
economic reform, and (4) to foster
efficiency.
Reformers tried to promote social
welfare by easing the problems of city life.
The YMCA built libraries and exercise
rooms. The Salvation Army fed poor
people in the cities and cared for children
in nurseries. Settlement houses helped
families. One reformer, Florence Kelley,
helped to win the passage of the Illinois
Factory Act in 1893. The law prohibited
child labor and limited women’s working
hours. The law became a model for other
states.
Reformers promoted moral reform by
working for prohibition—the banning of
alcoholic drinks. Many of these reformers,
called prohibitionists, were members of
the Woman’s Christian Temperance Union
(WCTU). The well-organized union
became the largest women’s group the
country had ever seen.
Reformers tried to make economic
changes by pointing out the great
inequality between the rich and the poor.

Which of the following is a consequence of federalism in the United States? Choose 1 answer: Choose 1 answer: (Choice A) The scope of the federal government has decreased over time (Choice B) Appointed officials have more power than elected officials (Choice C) National policymaking is held in check (Choice D) The executive branch has become more powerful over time
Answer:
(Choice C) National policymaking is held in check.
Explanation:
Federalism is the constitutional policy of the division of power between the federal and state governments. This division of power signifies the equalization of power for the different levels of authority.
One of the consequences of federalism in the United States is that the national policy-making is held in check. This is because federalism presents a limit to the power of the different levels of the governing bodies.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
