The correct answer is C) to stop most immigration.

The goal of nativism was to stop most immigration.

During the 1920s, immigration represented a serious problem and citizens demanded some actions to stop it. People from all over Europe with a different culture, history, and traditions arrived in the United States, taking jobs that Americans said belonged to them and started to cause some racial animosity in the US society. That is when the term nativism was created. People from the United States, with roots and generations in America, rejected immigration and external influences.
