Despite this, about 60 years later, the first income tax in the U.S. was levied to pay for the Civil War. When the conflict ended, this tax was repealed, but it gave the federal government a taste for the revenue that income taxes could raise.2 A new income tax was introduced in 1894, ostensibly to make up for lost revenues from reductions in U.S. tariffs. The public was not impressed. This tax was taken before the Supreme Court and was declared unconstitutional, in the case Pollock v. Farmers' Loan and Trust Co.
It has gone back up
it was supposed to be repealed

The weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation was that they could not tax sufficiently
The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration."4 The amendment was ratified in 1913, clearing the legal hurdles to an income tax. Unsurprisingly, an income tax was levied that very year
