- THE 'TARIFF OF ABOMINATIONS'
- JACKSON AND THE NULLIFICATION CRISIS OF 1828-1833
- Under President Adams, a high tariff to promote American manufacturing was issued. The tariff greatly harmed southern economies, particularly South Carolina. It was thought Jackson would significantly reduce this tariff, however, he did not.
- ORDINANCE OF NULLIFICATION
- JACKSON'S TARIFF OF 1832
- Nullify!
- On July 14th, 1832, Jackson signed into law a tariff that helped ease tensions on the issue, but did not satisfy southern businesses and politicians. Jackson's vice president, John C. Calhoun, resigned to take position in the Senate to better fight the tariff.
- Tariff of 1832
- South Carolinian politicians began organizing around the cause against the tariffs. On November 24th, 1832, they adopted the Ordinance of Nullification, ultimately refusing to adhere to the tariff ('nullifying' the law).
- THE ADMISSION OF THE FORCE BILL
- In response to South Carolina's open nullification of federal law, Jackson issued the Force Bill, allowing presidential use of military force against South Carolina to enforce cooperation and quash South Carolina's threat of secession from the Union.
- COMPROMISE TARIFF OF 1833
- With the issuance of the Force Bill, South Carolina agreed to compromise on a new tariff to avoid any further issues. They repealed their Nullification Ordinance, but also nullified the Force Bill, as a symbol of its principles.
