Answer 2

The effect that Nativism had on American immigration policy

Step-by-step explanation:

President Chester A. Arthur signed the Chinese Exclusion act in 1882. This was motivated by the fact that there was an influx of Chinese immigrants into the United States. These immigrants, mostly males provided cheap labor in the United States. It was the first law that prohibited people from a particular ethnic group from coming into the U.S.

The law was only for immigrant Chinese laborers because teachers, students, and other categories of people who were not laborers could still come into the United States. That law was a reflection of the nativism so inherent in the American Immigration policy. The Magnuson Act of 1943, was to later repeal the Exclusion Act.
