Nativists would most likely support the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882.

Nativists are a group of individuals who put the wants and needs of native born citizens over those of immigrants. These nativists are known for being anti-immigrant, as they were scared immigrants would take jobs from American born citizens and would try to change American culture in general.
