Calhoun speech denounces federal coercion against South Carolina
Speech by CALHOUN on the constitutional crisis argues that Congress cannot grant the President unlimited power to enforce tariff acts. He warns the bill would nullify state sovereignty, trigger civil war like actions, and erode the federal union by forcing martial rule over citizens and states. He laments enforcement as unjust and dangerous to liberty.
