Option B. Wilmot Proviso was a United States Congress proposal to ban or prohibit slavery in land obtained from Mexico.

Explanation:

During 1846, an encounter between military guards and Texas ignited United States-Mexican war. United States Congress tried a peaceful solution by negotiating with Mexico with a proposal to offer a ransom of $30000 and additional $2 million to Mexican President, James K. Polk in return of acquiring Oregon territory and a major share of Texas from Mexico.

Fearing a threat of slavery, United States Congressman, David Wilmot put forth this proposal during 1846 so as to prohibit slavery in the region post United States-Mexican war. Although bill was passed by House, Senate later adjourned this amendment without Provison and subsequently approved the funds negotiated.
