In case of the Chinese Exclusion Act (1882), there is evidence that the American government had the fear of the Chinese immigrants usurping their lands or occupying a large part of America by living there. There could have been a majority of Chinese individuals in the future protesting, raising their voices and perhaps forming labor unions. That is why there might have not been any chance taken by the American government to accept immigrant citizenship status of the Chinese individuals (Montoya et al., 2017). The message after the execution of this Act had been clear. This is because the Chinese immigrants could understand about being exploited for cheap labor.
