Act Prohibiting Importation Of Slaves

The Act Prohibiting Importation of Slaves of 1807 stated, in accordance with the Constitution of the United States, that no new slaves were permitted to be imported into the United States. This act effectively ended the legal transatlantic slave trade. However, slavery continued in the United States until the end of the Civil War and the adoption of the 13th Amendment to the Constitution.
