Public Bill
The framers made a compromise so that one house in the legislature would give all states an equal vote while the other house would be determined by the population of a state. It is called the Great Compromise of 1787.
Virginia was a heavily populated state and New Jersey was not. Virginia proposed congressional representation based upon population; New Jersey proposed equal representation of all states regardless of population.

The Virginia Plan, presented at the Constitutional Convention in 1787, did not explicitly address the issue of slavery, but it implicitly supported it by counting enslaved individuals as part of the population for representation purposes. This meant that states with large enslaved populations, like Virginia, would gain more representation in Congress. However, the plan did not propose any specific protections or regulations regarding slavery itself. Ultimately, the issue of slavery was a contentious topic during the convention, leading to compromises that allowed it to persist in the new Constitution.
The Virginia Plan proposed that the new legislature have representation based on a states population. The New Jersey Plan proposed that the new legislature let each state have the same number of representatives.
It was a plan to give every state an equal amount of representation. New Jersey established this plan in opposition to the Virginia Plan which wanted to give states representation based on population and the wealth of the citizens. They both wanted unicameral legislatives, and the Connecticut Compromise came in and proposed to have a bicameral legislature (Senate and House of Reps).
