Answer:

John Marshall :)

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1830, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Worcester v. Georgia that Jackson was wrong. Chief Justice John Marshall wrote in the majority opinion that the Constitution gave to Congress, not the states, the power to make laws that applied to the Indian tribes.

Hope this helped! <3
