February 24, 1868.
Andrew Johnson Andrew Johnson
Johnson's policies went against the wishes and plans of Congress.
Tenure of Office Act.
Andrew Jackson was not impeached; Andrew Johnson was. When the Radical Republicans were in charge of Congress, they hoped that the South was punished severely, and Johnson talked tough about Reconstruction. Andrew Johnson then proceeded to do exactly opposite of what he had promised, vetoing every act that helped the new freedmen and allowing a swift and extremely lenient reunion for the Southern states. The Radical Republicans were astonished and tried to kick him from the position of President.
The trial was held in the Senate chamber of the US Capitol building in Washington, DC.
No!
Johnson ignored the Tenure of Office Act.
There was no impeachment trial for Jackson. You may be thinking of Johnson or Clinton, the 2 president that were impeached.
