To stop Shays' Rebellion, George Washington took a firm stance in favor of a strong federal response. He supported the mobilization of a state militia to quell the uprising, which was fueled by economic distress and dissatisfaction with state policies. Washington emphasized the need for order and stability, recognizing that the rebellion threatened the nascent government. His leadership helped to reinforce the importance of a stronger national government, eventually contributing to the drafting of the U.S. Constitution.
