Answer: forcing new immigrants to wait longer before becoming citizens
Step-by-step explanation:
The Naturalization Act of 1790 changed the way naturalization was done in the United States. The Naturalization Act of 1790 limited access to the citizenship of the United States to white immigrants who had lived in the United States for at least two years and at least a year in the state where such people filed their application.
Citizenship were also granted to the children of the citizens of the United States that were born abroad. This forced new immigrants to wait longer before becoming citizens.
