Ten weeks after the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt signs Executive Order 9066, authorizing the removal of any or all people from military areas "as deemed necessary or desirable." The military in turn defined the entire West Coast, home to the majority of Americans of Japanese ancestry or citizenship, as a military area. By June, more than 110,000 Japanese Americans were relocated to remote internment camps built by the U.S. military in scattered locations around the country. For the next two and a half years, many of these Japanese Americans endured extremely difficult living conditions and poor treatment by their military guards.
On December 17, 1944, U.S. Major General Henry C. Pratt issued Public Proclamation No. 21, declaring that, effective January 2, 1945, Japanese-American "evacuees" from the West Coast could return to their homes. During the course of World War II, 10 Americans were convicted of spying for Japan, but not one of them was of Japanese ancestry. In 1988, President Ronald Reagan signed a bill to recompense each surviving internee with a tax-free check for $20,000 and an apology from the U.S. government.
Executive Order 9066.
The order violated virtually all of the rights that as citizens of the United States are supposed to be guaranteed by the United States Constitution. Japanese-Americans were denied due process and the guarantee of â??life, liberty or propertyâ?? contained in the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution of the United States. Executive Order 9066 called for taking Japanese-Americans from their homes and rehousing them to live in internment camps under curfew, with public property restrictions solely based on their ethnic background. The Supreme Court decided that the Constitution can be set aside on some occasions when practicality is needed, such as in times of war, and upheld the order. With that said, the US Supreme Court ruled in favor of Franklin D. Roosevelt's executive order. It remains unclear how the Court might decide such an issue in the 21st century.
Signed by President FDR, 19 February 1942, EO 9066 authorized the Secretary of War to assign areas of the US as military zones, and laid the groundwork for relocating Japanese-Americans to internment camps.
Executive order 9066 was to put Japanese Americans in internment camps. It was wrong and harmed these citizens needlessly.

The poem "In Response to Executive Order 9066" is written from the perspective of a young teenage Japanese girl about to be forced into an internment camp. The mood is a mixture of naive cheerfulness, sorrow, and confusion.

The constitutionality of Executive Order 9066 was upheld because the provisions of other orders that required individuals of Japanese ancestry to report to assembly centers and providing for the detention of such persons in assembly and relocation centers were separate.
