A wave of Immigration inspired nativist politicians to pass laws forcing immigrants to pass a literacy test, and to create a QUOTA SYSTEM. In other words they were completely against immigrants.
Nativists generally supported the Emergency Quota Act of 1921 because it significantly restricted immigration, particularly from Southern and Eastern Europe, which they viewed as a threat to American culture and values. They believed that limiting the number of immigrants would preserve the social fabric and economic opportunities for native-born Americans. The act reflected nativist sentiments by implementing a quota system based on national origins, favoring immigrants from Northern and Western Europe. Overall, nativists viewed the act as a victory in their efforts to curb immigration and promote a homogeneous American identity.
In scholarly studies "nativism" is a standard technical term. However, in public political discourse "nativist" is a term of opprobrium usually used by the opposition, and rarely by nativists themselves (they call themselves "patriots."). Anti-immigration is a more neutral term that may be used to characterize opponents of Immigration.Other words: They were completely and totally against it.
