Answer:

The legislative action taken was the Chinese Exclusion Act.

Step-by-step explanation:

Chinese exclusion Act is the correct answer because it was a legislative action taken in order to stop Chinese migration to the US because of the competition on the labor force and economic issues on the West Coast.

Dawes Act is not correct because it was a legislative action to break up the tribal lands.

Homestead Act is not correct because it was a legislative action that enabled the people to take up to 160 acres of land from the government.

The Pendelton Act of 1883 is not correct because it was a legislative action to stop nepotism and corruption.
