![]() Marshall's policies helped establish the Supreme Court as an equal branch of the federal government, giving it authority to review the actions and laws of the President and Congress and deem them "unconstitutional." The Marshall Court helped establish that the government must obey the Constitution and that federal law supersedes state law. He was often at odds with President Thomas Jefferson and his Democrat-Republican party, which favored states' rights and small government. Marshall used his position of influence to cement Federalist policies into law, which supported a powerful central government. Marshall served as Chief Justice for 34 years, the longest service of any chief justice. John Adams later said that was the best decision of his entire life. ![]() When Adams lost the 1800 election, he chose Marshall in a last minute flurry of appointments to be the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. The next year, President Adams successfully appointed Marshall his Secretary of State. In 1799, Marshall was elected a member of the House of Representatives from Richmond, Virginia. ![]()
