Question: 1 / 400

What did the New Jersey Plan propose during the Constitutional Convention?

A bicameral legislature

Equal representation for each state

The New Jersey Plan proposed that representation in the government be based on equal representation for each state. This was in contrast to other plans, such as the Virginia Plan, which proposed representation based on population. The New Jersey Plan also did not call for a bicameral legislature like the Connecticut Compromise did, where there would be a House of Representatives and a Senate. Additionally, the plan did not include direct election of Senators, which would later be established through the Seventeenth Amendment.
