Use the quotation to answer the question. According to the quote, what would happen if the new Constitution was passed? Each state would become its own independent republic. The American people would lose their rights and freedoms. People in Massachusetts would become free, but everyone else would not. The United States would acquire an empire like Britain’s. I had rather be a free citizen of the small republic of Massachusetts, than an oppressed subject of the great American empire. –from the Boston Gazette, November 1787
