Answer:

Banned Chinese in the United States from becoming naturalized citizens.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Chinese Exclusion Act was a law signed in 1882 by President Chester A. Arthur, and it was about suspending immigration from a specific country. In this case, the law prohibited Chinese labourers from entering the United States. This law was set as the first one that limited entrance to The U.S.A and it changed its image of a welcoming country to one of gatekeeping one.
