Embargo Act
Jefferson preferred the embargo act of 1807 to because he hoped that it would prevent a war between the United States and Britain.
The Non-Intercourse Act was passed in 1809 and replaced the Embargo Act of 1807. According to the Embargo Act, the United States was prohibited from exporting goods to any country. The Embargo Act was meant to punish France and Great Britain, but it actually hurt the United States more. Under the Non-Intercourse Act, the United States could trade with any country except France or Great Britain.
