Denis Kearney opposed Chinese Immigration primarily due to economic and social concerns. He believed that Chinese laborers were taking jobs away from white workers and driving down wages. Kearney also fueled racial animosity, portraying Chinese immigrants as a threat to American values and society. His activism contributed to the passage of the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882, which severely restricted Chinese immigration.
