Native American tribes that lived east of the Mississippi River were the people most hurt by Andrew Jacksonâ??s Indian Removal Policy. These people did not know where they could go, how to survive on foreign lands, or who they could trust.
The Native Americans were hurt by Jackson's removal policy. They were forced to move to what is now Oklahoma.
Thomas Jackson, also known as Stonewall Jackson, is not known to have had a policy toward Native Americans. Andrew Jackson, a generation earlier, and no relation to Stonewall, carried out a policy similar to a Russian progrom to force Native Americans across the Mississippi to a separate territory. This became known as the Trail of Tears.

You are asking the wrong question. It should be how did American policy affect Native Americans.
Jackson had the view that a " good Indian was a dead one." This lead to the Indian Removal Act and the wholesale removal of Native Americans to reservations and the loss of their native ancestoral lands as well as death, starvation, and disease. One of the worse events in his presidency was the Trail of Tears when 4,000 Native Americans were walked from Georgia and Florida in the dead of winter to a reservation in Oklahoma. Many elderly, children, and women died on the walk.
The government's policy of assimilation of the Native Americans was a failure because the government wanted to eliminate them. The government wanted the Native Americans to remain powerless.
His policy was " a good Indian was a dead one" and he carried that thought out to his fullest extent. Under his administration the Indian removal act was passed to move Native Americans onto reservations from ancestral lands.

I believe the legislation you are referring to is the Indian Removal Act, and Andrew Jackson's enforcement of this causing the Trail of Tears.
The policy of the Native Americans was one of genocide, and removal. The unwritten policy was a " good Indian, was a dead one" and everything was done to make sure that was true. Native Americans were removed from homelands, killed in raids on villages, given blankets with smallpox on them, starved, walked to death, hung, placed in camps and reservations, taken to schools away from families, and lied to.
