B. reduced the national debt by cutting government spending


Jefferson was a Democratic-Republican and believed in states' rights and a small federal government.


To keep the power of the federal government small, Jefferson cut spending. In doing this, he was able to reduced the government debt from the Revolutionary War without raising taxes on the people. Jefferson also cut the size of the military because he believed it was not a power the federal government should hold.
