The Nullification Crisis occurred in South Carolina. There the state refused to render tariffs to the federal government. President Andrew Jackson sent troops there to settle the matter.
Federalism
to the us to have a bad economy for a while
South Carolina believed the tariff acts passed by the Federal government hurt the economics of that state. They refused to either collect tariffs or collected them but did not send them to Washington DC. President Andrew Jackson sent US troops to fix the "Nullification problem". South Carolina was forced to obey the laws that were entirely specific in the US Constitution.
The nullification crisis developed when South Carolina refused to collect and pay to the US government tariff monies. President Jackson displayed the power of the Federal government by using troops to force South Carolina to comply wit the US Constitution which specified how tariffs were part of the duties of the US government. It was a strong message by Jackson.

Andrew Jackson told Calhoun that the US would not tolerate nullification of the tariff. If South Carolina tried, the army would enforce the law.

The so-called "nullification controversy" was the declaration by South Carolina in 1830 that federal tariffs were unconstitutional. The threat of South Carolina's actions against the US and the US Constitution ended when US President Andrew Jackson threatened to send federal troops to that state in order to enforce federal tariff laws.
The nullification crisis voided the tariff laws imposed by the US government on South Carolina. Robert Hayne of South Carolina interpreted the Constitution as a mere treaty between states, while Daniel Webster defended the Constitution. This became known as the Hayne-Webster debate.
