Answer:

Abraham Lincoln (more info below)

Step-by-step explanation:

The Supreme Court ruled that even though Dred Scott is currently in a free state, he is still not entitled to his freedom because he is brought from a non-free state. The Republican Party (led by Abraham Lincoln) heard about this decision and decided to oppose it.

hope I helped!
