New Jersey Plan
New Jersey-planen (også kendt som Small State Plan eller Paterson-planen) var et forslag til struktur for USA's regering, som William Paterson fremlagde på forfatningskonventet den 15. juni 1787. Planen blev udarbejdet som svar på Virginia-planen, som krævede to kongreshuse, der begge blev valgt med en fordeling efter befolkningstal. De mindre folkerige stater var stærkt imod at give størstedelen af kontrollen med den nationale regering til de mere folkerige stater og foreslog derfor en alternativ plan, der ville have bevaret repræsentationen med én stemme pr. stat under ét lovgivende organ fra konføderationsartiklerne. New Jersey-planen blev modsat af James Madison og Edmund Randolph (fortalerne for Virginia-statens plan).
The New Jersey Plan (also known as the Small State Plan or the Paterson Plan) was a proposal for the structure of the United States Government presented by William Paterson at the Constitutional Convention on June 15, 1787. The plan was created in response to the Virginia Plan, which called for two houses of Congress, both elected with apportionment according to population. The less populous states were adamantly opposed to giving most of the control of the national government to the more populous states, and so proposed an alternative plan that would have kept the one-vote-per-state representation under one legislative body from the Articles of Confederation. The New Jersey Plan was opposed by James Madison and Edmund Randolph (the proponents of the Virginia state Plan).
