Racism. The Mexican Repatriation is a dark chapter in American history referring to 2 million people of Mexican ancestry being forcibly expelled from the United States. It is stated that 1.2 million of those were American citizens.
The rationale was that due to the Great Depression, the easiest way of saving welfare money was to free jobs for "real Americans". These deportations occurred without due process, and many people were expelled just because of the color of their skin.

Why don't Mexicans go back to Mexico?
First, it is a myth that all immigrants are Mexicans, and it is also a myth that the US is being overrun with illegal Mexican immigrants. While many illegal immigrants are indeed from Mexico, many are not. (And it should also be noted that many immigrants from Mexico are legal, and have every right to be here.) Studies have shown that there are illegal immigrants from numerous countries, including Ireland and China, who come to the US and either overstay their visa unintentionally or decide they don't want to leave, even when they are supposed to. As for Mexicans, many do in fact go back to Mexico. But others stay, and in some cases, they live in the shadows for years, working at jobs many Americans don't want to do.
