Answer:

False

President Andrew Jackson did not chastise Congress for waiting too long to pass the Indian Removal Act of 1830 in his "On Indian Removal" speech. In fact, he strongly advocated for the passage of the act and defended the policy of Indian removal. Jackson was a supporter of the Indian Removal Act, which ultimately led to the forced removal of Native American tribes from their ancestral lands in the southeastern United States to the west of the Mississippi River. His speech was in favor of the policy, not critical of Congress for any delay in its implementation.
