Why did Chinese immigration end in the 1880s?

Chinese immigration to the United States significantly declined in the 1880s primarily due to the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882, which prohibited the immigration of Chinese laborers. This legislation was driven by growing anti-Chinese sentiment and economic competition fears among American workers. The act marked the first significant law restricting immigration based on ethnicity and set a precedent for future immigration restrictions. Consequently, the number of Chinese immigrants dropped sharply as a result of these legal barriers and social discrimination.
