Slave Trade Congress will not interfere in the slave trade until 1808 (north had already banned the slave trade; south considered it central to their economy)
Bill of Rights Some worry without a bill of rights (listing of people's rights and freedoms), national government may abuse its power George Mason, Virginia, proposed Bill of Rights to be included in the Constitution Idea is defeated based on belief that the Constitution carefully defined powers and provided enough protection of individual rights
Approving the Constitution September 17, 1787 - delegates assemble to sign Constitution; 3 refused because it did not have a Bill of Rights Approved draft sent to the states for their approval Needed 9 out of the 13 states to approve to go into effect.
