Shay's rebellion provided one of the reasons for the Constitutional Convention. Since Congress had not been meeting, there had been no way for the states to join together to fight the rebellion.

The new Constitution made the President the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces. He would always be on the job even when congress went home. If another rebellion occurred then he would be available to call up the troops and put down the rebellion.
