The Tariff of 1828, often referred to as the "Tariff of Abominations," was largely opposed by the western states, particularly those that relied on exporting agricultural products. While some western interests initially supported tariffs to protect emerging industries, the overall sentiment shifted against the tariff due to its negative impact on trade and rising prices for consumers. Many western politicians and farmers viewed the tariff as favoring northern industrial interests at their expense. Consequently, the west was not a strong supporter of the Tariff of 1828.
