Slavery and importation clause in Constitution debated
The fragment argues against viewing the 1808 importation ban as establishing slavery, claiming it limits Congress powers and reflects states retaining authority. It discusses fugitive slave provisions, territorial versus state power, and cites Supreme Court stance on slaveholder rights in free territories.

Slavery and Territory Power in Congressional Debate
The speaker argues constitutional limits on extending slavery to new U S territories and rebuts supreme court visions that Congress lacks authority. He cites Missouri Compromise, Kansas Nebraska acts, and territorial governance cases to insist Congress can regulate territories and prohibit slavery there, while condemning attempts to overrule court decisions.
