The correct answer is an extension of the Missouri compromise.

. Polk favored the idea of extending the Missouri Compromise which would have excluded slavery from present-day Washington, Oregon, Utah, Idaho, Nevada, and the northern half of California while allowing it in what is now New Mexico, Arizona, and southern California.
