There is a lot of opposition to the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 in the Northern states, which are vehemently against slavery and is the destination of many escaped slaves from the South. Some states tried to nullify the Federal law, notably Wisconsin Supreme Court and Vermont legislature. Of course, abolitionists are vehemently against the law.
