Question

what had the supreme court ruled in mccullochv. margland regarding a national bank? did president jackson accept that ruling

Answer 1

In McCullough v. Maryland (1891), the US Congress defined the scope of legislative power. In this case, the Supreme Court found that Congress had “implied powers” (powers not expressly listed in the Constitution) and that the Necessary and Proper Clause gave them the power to establish a National Bank.

President Jackson did not agree because he felt the finding was unconstitutional and had the ability to greatly overpower the federal government. He vetoed the bill refusing to acknowledge warnings that doing so would threaten his re-election chances.
