1832South Carolina adopts Ordinance of NullificationNullification Crisis intensifiesSouth Carolina's legislature declared the federal tariffs of 1828 and 1832 null and void within the state, asserting a state's right to nullify federal law. President Andrew Jackson responded by threatening military enforcement and securing a Force Bill from Congress. The crisis was defused in early 1833 through a negotiated tariff compromise, but it foreshadowed later disputes over federal versus state authority.
