President Andrew Jackson rejected the Worcester v. Georgia ruling, which recognized Cherokee sovereignty, because he wanted to facilitate land for white settlers. His dismissal of the ruling was consistent with his support for the Indian Removal Act, leading to the forced displacement of many Native Americans during the Trail of Tears. This action demonstrated the government's prioritization of expansionist policies over Native rights.
