Description

In September of 1787, the members of the Philadelphia Convention sent the new United States Constitution to the Confederation Congress for their review.


This new document outlined a new government and thus called for the transfer of governmental authority from the Confederation Congress to a new government. Instead of retaliating at the loss of their authority, the courageous existing Congress supported the new government and developed a plan that would facilitate that transfer of power.
