1. Chapter 10, Lesson 1
A New Party in Power

2. Election of 1800
Federalists support John Adams for 2nd term and Charles Pinckney as VP
Dem-Republicans support Thomas Jefferson for Pres. and Aaron Burr as VP
Bitter campaign had candidates attacking each other personally
After a tie, Jefferson is elected. 12th Amendment is passed so electors vote P/VP

3. Jefferson’s Inauguration
Dressed in everyday clothes-not flashy
“Wise & Frugal Gov’t”
“Support state gov’ts in all their rights”
Felt Fed Gov’t threatened liberty, states could better protect freedom
Limit size & power of Fed Gov’t

4. President Jefferson Albert Gallatin- Sec of Treasury
Reduced: nat’l debt, military expenses, federal employees & taxes
Collected customs duties-taxes on imported goods

5. Judiciary Act of 1801 Federalists passed before Jefferson took office
Adams makes 100s of judge appointments, asks John Marshall to be chief justice, wanted to control the courts
Judges had to receive commission-official papers
Jefferson told Sec of State James Madison not to deliver commissions

6. Supreme Court William Marbury didn’t get his commission
Asked The Court to force delivery
Court didn’t have jurisdiction-legal authority
Marbury felt an act of Congress gave the Court authority
Court ruled it violated the Constitution

7. Marshall’s opinion-legal reason
Marbury v. Madison
Marshall’s opinion-legal reason
Constitution is supreme law of the land
Constitution must be followed when there is a conflict w/ any other law
Judicial branch can declare laws unconstitutional
Judicial Review: Courts can check legislative & executive branches

8. Marshall’s Court
McCulloch v. Maryland(1819): Congress has implied powers & states can’t tax fed gov’t
Gibbons v. Ogden(1824): Fed law overrules state law in matters w/ more +1 state
Worcester v. Georgia(1832): states can’t regulate Native Americans, only Fed.
