According to the New Jersey Plan, how is Congress structured?

The New Jersey Plan proposed a unicameral Congress, meaning it consisted of a single legislative chamber where each state would have equal representation, regardless of its population size. This plan was introduced as a response to the Virginia Plan, which called for a bicameral legislature with representation based on state population. The intent behind the New Jersey Plan was to ensure that smaller states would not be overshadowed by larger states in the legislative process, advocating for a system that maintained a balance of power among all states. This structure reflected the concerns of smaller states who feared that a population-based system would disadvantage them, leading to calls for the creation of a Congress that ensured equal influence for every state. The proposal ultimately contributed to the discussions that shaped the final structure of the U.S. Congress under the Great Compromise.
