Mr. Speaker,

I propose the following amendment:

The practice of slavery will not be allowed within the state created from the County of Kentucky.

I yield.

Mr. Speaker,

If now is not the time to have the fight over the horror of slavery than when is? When our great Republic has 25 states? 50? 75? We must address this issue while our nation is still small and new and maleable. I will not give up the fight to end slavery simply because my opponents believe it to be politically expedient to ignore the issue for another day.

I yield.
