What did Jefferson hope would happen by cutting of trade with England and the rest of the world?

1 answer:

4 0

The Embargo Act of 1807 was a law passed by the United State Congress and signed by President Thomas Jefferson on December 22, 1807.

It prohibited American ships from trading in all foreign ports. In 1806, France passed a law that prohibited trade between neutral parties, like the U.S., and Britain. Agricultural prices and earnings fell. Shipping-related industries were devastated. Nothing much out of that, eh?

Hope this helps, and you'd get it right. x
