What was the effect of the Chinese exclusion act

Chinese immigrants moved to many locations around the world instead, changing the demographics of many communities. Ultimately, as Chinese were one of the only ethnicities at the time that were willing and able to provide manual labor in MANY industries and situations, the US hurt its own economy. The number of Chinese immigrants able to enter the country was severely limited, and Chinese immigrants already here did not leave the country to visit family for fear of being denied reentry.

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

The Chinese Exclusion Act was created in 1882 to decrease the Chinese population in the United States, especially in California. Their presence caused many uprisings, riots, and racist hate crimes by other miners during the California Gold Rush, which led to things like the Foreign Miners Tax during that time.

In 1882, President Chester A. Arthur signed the Chinese Exclusion Act into law, which banned Chinese immigration for the next ten years and it didn't allow the Chinese people to be naturalized. The most obvious effect of this is that it decreased the Chinese population in the United States, because the Chinese population couldn't increase due to immigration and the Chinese didn't receive the same rights and privileges as U.S. Citizens, so they were at a disadvantage.

Have a wonderful day! :D
