The president that signed the Indian Removal Act of 1830 into law was president Andrew Jackson. Jackson fought many battles against Native Americans. Soon after he became president, he signed the Indian Removal Act and started forcing the Cherokee and other tribes to leave their homelands in the South for reservations in the West.

This happened on May 28, 1830. This Act gave President the right to move the Native Americans from their native lands into areas west of the Mississippi, and take the lands they originally came from, because they were within the existing state borders. Many resisted this decision, which is why they were brutally killed.
