In 1890, the United States Congress passed the Tariff Act of 1890 to create the McKinley Tariff. A tariff is tax placed on imports, so the Congress was trying to discourage the importing of goods from other countries. By putting this "handicap" on imported goods, they were trying to protect American manufacturing.
The tariff had the benefit of spurring growth in American business. When it was no longer practical and cheap to simply import things, American businesses had to do these things themselves. However, the tariff was not well-received by American citizens because they disliked the way that it indirectly raised prices.
Due to this lack of popular support, the McKinley Tariff was eventually replaced by Wilson-Gorman Tariff in 1894.
An Act that raised the tariffs on manufactured goods to the higher level yet.
The McKinley Tariff Act of 1890 raised the taxes or tariffs on many imported goods. It was a protest against other nations that had similar policies.
The tariff raised the average duty on imports to almost fifty percent, an act designed to protect domestic industries from foreign competition. The McKinley Tariff was replaced with the Wilsonâ??Gorman Tariff Act in 1894, which promptly lowered tariff rates.

The Fordney-McCumber Tariff Act of 1922 made it difficult for Europe to do business with the United States. This Tariff Act placed a power on the President of the United States to raise tariff rates by up to 50%.

The Fordney-McCumber Tariff was where they raised the cost of foreign farm products so Americans would be more likely to buy farm products from farmers in the U.S who were suffering after the great depression.
