It was a <a href="/wiki/Bill_(law)" title="Bill (law)">bill</a> designed to fail in <a href="/wiki/United_States_Congress" title="United States Congress">Congress</a> because it was seen by <a href="/wiki/Free_trade" title="Free trade">free trade</a> supporters as hurting both industry and farming, but it passed anyway. The bill was vehemently denounced in the <a href="/wiki/Southern_United_States" title="Southern United States">South</a> and escalated to a <a href="/wiki/Origins_of_the_American_Civil_War" title="Origins of the American Civil War">threat of civil war</a> in the <a href="/wiki/Nullification_Crisis" class="mw-redirect" title="Nullification Crisis">Nullification Crisis</a> of 1832–33. The <a href="/wiki/Tariff" title="Tariff">tariff</a> was replaced in 1833, and the crisis ended. It was called the <b>"Tariff of Abominations"</b> by its Southern detractors because of the effects it had on the Southern economy. It set a 38% tax on some imported goods and a 45% tax on certain imported raw materials.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The manufacturing-based economy in the <a href="/wiki/Northeastern_United_States" title="Northeastern United States">Northeastern states</a> was suffering from low-priced imported manufactured items from Britain. The major goal of the tariff was to protect the factories by taxing imports from Europe. Southerners from the <a href="/wiki/Cotton_Belt" title="Cotton Belt">Cotton Belt</a>, particularly those from <a href="/wiki/South_Carolina" title="South Carolina">South Carolina</a>, felt they were harmed directly by having to pay more for imports from Europe.

The <a href="/wiki/Tariff_of_1816" title="Tariff of 1816">first protective tariff</a> was passed by Congress in 1816, and its rates were <a href="/wiki/Tariff_of_1824" title="Tariff of 1824">increased in 1824</a>. Southern states such as South Carolina contended that the tariff was unconstitutional and were opposed to the newer <a href="/wiki/Protectionism" title="Protectionism">protectionist</a> tariffs, as they would have to pay, but Northern states favored them because they helped strengthen their industrial-based economy.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In an elaborate scheme to prevent passage of still higher tariffs, while at the same time appealing to <a href="/wiki/Andrew_Jackson" title="Andrew Jackson">Andrew Jackson</a>'s supporters in the North, <a href="/wiki/John_C._Calhoun" title="John C.

It was believed that President <a href="/wiki/John_Quincy_Adams" title="John Quincy Adams">John Quincy Adams</a>'s supporters in New England would uniformly oppose the bill for this reason and that the Southern legislators could then withdraw their support, killing the legislation while blaming it on New England. The goal was to write a bill so bad—so "abominable"—that it would never pass but would help Van Buren and the Southerners while hurting the Adams-Clay coalition.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Bill_passage">Bill passage</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Tariff_of_Abominations&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Bill passage"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The House committee drafted a bill that imposed very high duties on raw materials, including iron, <a href="/wiki/Hemp" title="Hemp">hemp</a> (for rope) and <a href="/wiki/Flax" title="Flax">flax</a>, but eliminated the protective features on woolen goods. The alliance organized by Van Buren that included the middle states and the south voted down every attempt by New Englanders to amend the bill. The alliance was confident the bill was so unfavorable that it would be defeated in Congress, hurting Adams and Clay in the process. To the astonishment of the alliance, a substantial minority of New England voted for the final bill, on the grounds that the principle of protection was of enormous value. The bill passed the house 105 to 94 on April 23 and passed the Senate 26 to 21 on May 13. President Adams signed it and the tariff became law. Adams became a hated man in the South.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Farmers in Western states and manufacturers in the <a href="/wiki/Mid-Atlantic_states" class="mw-redirect" title="Mid-Atlantic states">Mid-Atlantic states</a> argued that the strengthening of the nation was in the interest of the entire country.<sup id="cite_ref-taxhistory_9-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-taxhistory-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> This same reasoning swayed two-fifths of U.S. Representatives in the New England states to vote for the tariff increase.
