Congress created tariffs on the import of goods that could be produced domestically in the hopes that this additional fee would discourage merchants from importing similar items from abroad. The Embargo Acts and the problems with trade preceded the War of 1812 had helped American industry develop. This law further supported these efforts by regulating the market in domestic production's favor.
