Clay had originally favored voting on each of his proposals separately but Senator Henry S Foote of Mississippi convinced him to combine the proposals regarding California's admission and the disposition of Texas's borders into one bill. Clay hoped that this combination of measures would convince congressmen from both North and South to support the overall package of laws even if they objected to specific provisions. Clay's proposal attracted the support of some Northern Democrats and Southern Whigs but it lacked the backing necessary to win passage and debate over the bill continued.
