1 Answer

Answer:

Many of them denounced it (heatedly).

Step-by-step explanation:

Numerous delegates harshly condemned it. Georgia and the two Carolinas, two of the three states that permitted it, threatened to quit the convention if the trade was outlawed. Another solution was developed by a special committee: Congress would have the authority to outlaw the slave trade, but not until 1800.
