Answer:

Options: Speaker A: The time of unlimited immigration is now past; controls are necessary to preserve the customs and values that have made this nation great.

Speaker B: In order to protect our citizens' jobs, restrictions must be placed on the number of immigrants.

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1882, Congress passed the Chinese Exclusion Act, which prevented all Chinese immigration in America. The Chinese Exclusion Act was a law forced during the Presidency of Chester A. Arthur. The Act banned all Chinese immigration for ten years and prohibited Chinese resident to be citizens in America.

Speaker A and B support the Chinese Exclusion Act as they state it necessary for America to save its culture and customs especially, immigrants from China. To protect jobs is another explanation for the support of this law that put restrictions on Chinese immigrants.
