Answer 2

The Chinese Exclusion Act was passed in 1882, and it suspended Chinese immigration to the United States. The goal of this act was to prevent the American workers' wages from being lowered, as the Chinese could provide cheap labor. This also aimed to prevent America from being overpopulated by Chinese immigrants.
