Marbury v. Madison• Before Jefferson became President, President

Adams had used a law from Congress to give an important job to a man named William Marbury. But, Jefferson’s Secretary of State, James Madison, did not want Marbury to have that job. When Madison stopped Marbury from getting the job, Marbury took Madison to court. The court case is known as Marbury v. Madison.

Marbury v. Madison

• Marbury wanted the court to force Madison to obey the law and give him the job. But, Madison said the law was unconstitutional. Eventually the Supreme Court had to decide who was right and who was wrong.

Marbury v. Madison

• This case is very important for the history of the Supreme Court because it is the first time the Supreme Court actually had to decide whether a law was Constitutional. This special power of the Supreme Court is called Judicial Review.

President Jefferson

• Thomas Jefferson was very different from President Adams and Washington. He was a Democratic Republican, so he believed in a weak Federal Government. He repealed the Alien and Sedition Acts. He also repealed many of the new taxes created by Federalists.
