As part of the Compromise of 1850, Congress passed a much stricter fugitive slave law.
This new law made many Northerners angry for all of the following reasons EXCEPT:

A). The law allowed commissioners to be paid $5 if they released the person and $10 if they declared
the person a fugitive and sent him or her back into slavery.

B). The law imposed heavy penalties on marshals who did not enforce the law or on anyone who
tried to help a slave escape.

C). The law immediately banned the slave trade from the nation's capital, Washington, D. C.

D). The law gave more power to special commissioners who were catching enslaved people.
