The Embargo Act banned trade with all foreign countries to punish Britain and France. It was passed in 1807.

What was the problem with the Embargo Act?

The Embargo Act ruined American merchants. They lost lots of money without trade since the United States earned most money from trade with France and Britain. It weakened Jefferson and strengthened the Federalists. The Embargo Act was unpopular.

How might Congress have solved the problem?

Congress tried to solve the problem by replacing with the Non-Intercourse Act, which was passed in 1809. It banned trade only with Britain, France, and their colonies.

Congress could have solved the problem by making peace with France and Britain and stop going to war.
