In 1830, just a year after taking office, President Jackson pushed a new piece of legislation called the "Indian Removal Act" through both houses of Congress. It gave the president power to negotiate removal treaties with Indian tribes living east of the Mississippi. Under these treaties, the Indians were to give up their lands east of the Mississippi in exchange for lands to the west.. This act affected not only the southeastern nations, but many others further north. The southeastern nations resisted, and Jackson forced them to leave.
By 1837, the Jackson administration had removed 46,000 Native American people from their land east of the Mississippi. Most members of the five southeastern nations had been relocated west, opening 25 million acres of land to white settlement and to slavery.
