What is the issue of nullification?
Nullification is an idea dating back to Jefferson's time, when he helped author the Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions. These documents proclaimed that states had the right to nullify or declare void any federal law they deemed unconstitutional. Strong supporters of states rights championed the idea and right of nullification. Of course this idea would resurface during Jackson's presidency, and remain in the public's mind until the Civil War, in which several states nullified federal laws, and created their own government and nation.
Who didn't like the idea of nullification in a stirring speech in the senate?
Andrew Jackson, he found that the idea of nullification was limiting his power and he didn't like that. In fact he was outraged when South Carlolina opposed and made the nullificationa and was only settled when they made an agreement to lower the tariff. I hope this helped!
