These policies were associated with the Whig Party, which emerged in the 1830s as a response to the policies of President Andrew Jackson and the Democratic Party. The Whigs favored a strong federal government and believed in using its powers to promote economic development and protect American industry. They supported the establishment of a national bank, high tariffs to protect American businesses from foreign competition, and government funding for infrastructure and internal improvements (such as roads and canals).
