The United States Force Bill was passed by Congress on March 2, 1833 at the behest of President Andrew Jackson. This bill allowed Jackson use any force necessary to suppress obstruction of federal law, use armed forces to protect custom officers and untaxed vessels, and expand the jurisdiction of federal courts to revenue collection cases by the US government. This was all done to drive South Carolina to comply with a set of federal tariffs.
