The first thing that Jefferson wanted to do was limit
the federal government’s power over states,
citizens and economics.
He believed that the government should not
interfere with the economy
He fired all tax collectors, shrank the military,
removed ALL federal taxes, cut government
expenses….the only money the U.S. was making
was from tariffs
He set free anyone from the Sedition Acts and
refunded their fines.

Marbury was fired by
Jefferson and Madison
• Marbury sued Madison
stating the Judiciary Act of
