Thomas Jefferson hoped to reduce the size and expense of the federal governments and worked Behind the Scenes to accomplish his purposes in Congress. He significantly decreased the federal government by getting rid of staff, cutting the deficit, and cutting the army 50%. This reduced the federal bureaucracy, cut taxes and military spending.

The Louisiana Purchase of 1803 was his biggest accomplishment, but sparked common critique because it went against his republican values of a strict interpretation of the Constitution.

In 1807, Jefferson issued an embargo trying to force France and England to recognize the independent economy of the US, but it backfired by causing huge economic issues that bankrupted many merchants.
