Chinese Exclusion Act 1882 Bell Ringer: –AHPPA Step 1: Identify the Problem Answer the following questions in your notebook:

Chinese Exclusion Act 1882 In your own words, what does this law do and/or who does it apply to? Why would the federal government focus on Chinese immigrants? What features makes Chinese people very different than European people? Would you feel safer if the federal government restricted immigration of Muslims today?

Chinese Exclusion Act 1882

By the mid 1800's, a seething anti-Chinese sentiment among the working classes was developing. Chinese immigrants became scapegoats for economic hardships because of their race and culture, willingness to work for lower wages and unwillingness to unionize with non-Chinese.

Chinese Exclusion Act 1882 Anti-Chinese agitation eventually convinced Congress to pass a national Chinese Exclusion Act in Following is the preamble and the first article of the Act…..

Chinese Exclusion Act 1882 Preamble. Whereas, in the opinion of the Government of the United States the coming of Chinese laborers to this country endangers the good order of certain localities within the territory thereof: Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, –That from and after the expiration of ninety days next after the passage of this act, and until the expiration of ten years next after the passage of this act, the coming of Chinese laborers to the United States be, and the same is hereby, suspended; and during such suspension it shall not be lawful for any Chinese laborer to come, or, having so come after the expiration of said ninety days, to remain within the United States.
