Answer:

B) Pres. Zachary Taylor

Explanation:

Bennett Riley issued an announcement on June 3, 1849, requiring a constitutional convention. In the meantime, President James K. Polk endeavored to get Congress in 1848, and again in 1849, to make California a region. Yet, his endeavors slowed down over the bondage issue.

An deal was at long last conceivable after the sudden death of President Zachary Taylor, who had favored barring bondage from the Southwest. Clay encouraged Senator Stephen Douglas to separate his measure into a few politically absorbable littler pieces, along these lines barely winning passage.
