3 0

The America Legislator that assaulted a fellow Congressman prior to the start of the Civil War was Preston Smith Brooks, an supporter of slavery, who beat Senator Charle Sumner, an abolitionist, close to death at the United State Senate itself. For decades later Senators carried weapons, including revolvers into the Senate to protect themselves from assaults. Preventive measures proved unsufficient, since many more violent acts happenned over the years.

What was the main reason that Congress passed the Indian Removal Act?
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

<u>The main reason was the dispute over the lands of the Native tribes. </u>

Explanation:

The governments of several states of the United States felt that the presence of the tribes was a threat to peace and security, because many Native Americans had fought against the United States in previous wars, often armed by foreign nations such as Great Britain and Spain. Other white settlers and land speculators simply wanted the land that was being occupied by the tribes. Therefore, these governments wanted all tribal lands within their borders to be placed under state jurisdiction.
