Answer:

this is my original answer, do not copy or edge will get mad :D

Step-by-step explanation:

The restrictions to U.S. immigration was that they could have a maximum land grant of 48,708 acres of land. And the grantees (the person who got the land grant) had to live in Texas, and become Catholic. Lastly, they weren’t allowed to live within 30 miles of the coast or 60 miles of the international boundaries. The Mexican government set these rules for Americans because they didn’t trust them and they wanted a way to keep an eye on their actions.

Answer: Because, predominantly in the agricultural Western region of the United States, the demand for cheap labor was extremely high at the time. The source of this cheap labor were Mexican immigrants.
