Question 7 • DRHS GA-GSE US History A

What were the results of Jackson's veto of the bank bill?

Answer
A
Members of Congress went behind Jackson's back and created a new National Bank against his wishes.
B
Jackson won over his critics and convinced them that the National Bank was unconstitutional and bad for America.
C
Jackson's political enemies created a new party, the Whigs, based largely on a shared disapproval of Jackson and his policies.

Explanation

Jackson's veto of the bill to renew the Second Bank of the United States intensified opposition to his presidency. His political enemies united in the Whig Party, which opposed Jackson and many of his policies. Congress did not create a new National Bank, and the veto did not persuade his critics to agree with him.
