Yes, New Hampshire, like several other states, expressed opposition to federal tariff laws in the early 19th century, particularly during the era of rising tariffs that were seen as benefiting industrial Northern states at the expense of agricultural Southern states. However, New Hampshire did not formally attempt to nullify these laws in the same way that South Carolina did with the Nullification Crisis of 1832. Instead, New Hampshire's response was more focused on political and legislative means to address its grievances regarding tariffs.

Is this True or false the nullification crisis was caused by a dispute over the tariff?
During President Jackson's period of office the "Nullification Crisis", or "secession crisis," of 1828 - 1832, merged issues of sectional strife with disagreements over tariffs. Critics alleged that high tariffs (the "Tariff of Abominations") on imports of common manufactured goods made in Europe made those goods more expensive than ones from the northern U.S., raising the prices paid by planters in the South. Southern politicians argued that tariffs benefited northern industrialists at the expense of southern farmers."
