President Benjamin Harrison supported protective tariffs as a means to promote American industry and protect domestic jobs. He believed that high tariffs would help American manufacturers compete against foreign imports. To support this position, Harrison endorsed and signed the McKinley Tariff of 1890, which raised tariff rates significantly, and he also pushed for the passage of the Dependent Pension Act, which was partly funded by tariff revenue, reflecting his commitment to using tariffs as a tool for economic policy.
