Weegy: The Wilson-Gorman Tariff of 1894 slightly reduced the United States tariff rates from the numbers set in the 1890 Tariff Act. [ The United States Revenue Act of 1913 re-imposed the federal income tax following the ratification of the Sixteenth Amendment and lowered basic tariff rates from 40% to 25%, and is how Wilson compensated for reduced government income! ]
