Immigration

Like most countries, the United States alternated between welcoming newcomers and wishing they would stay away. Some American nativists, especially in the early to mid-1800s, wanted only those who were descendants of the original colonists to live in the US. They questioned whether immigrants with no ties to America would be loyal to this country, and they feared that immigrants would secretly remain loyal to the old country.

Other nativists disliked people from the "wrong" religion-- Catholics and Jews, for example, and later they did not want people from the "wrong" race-- Asians, free blacks from the Caribbean, etc. Thus, the main reasons that nativists opposed immigration were fear of those who were different, and later, concern that immigrants might take away their jobs.

Immigrants still come to America today for the same reasons as they did in the past. They come for jobs, college, freedom, and the acquisition of rights available to all citizens.

Most immigrants who came to the United States became normal participants in the society and economy of the United States.

The purpose of the "White Australia" policy was essentially to protect Australia from infiltration by Asian cultures. Although introduced at Federation, it was actually a legacy dating back to goldrush times. Some Australians wanted a "White Australia" policy and to have immigration laws toughened. There was lingering resentment over the Chinese who had come during the gold rush, made their fortune (as they were far more industrious than Australians) and then returned to their own country, taking their fortune with them. Some stayed and set up businesses in towns, but they were always looked down upon.

It was hoped by some (not all) that a White Australia policy would ensure employment for Australians. Some colonies were opposed to this policy as they used foreign labour, which was often much cheaper than local labour. An example of this is Queensland, which employed Kanakas (people from the Cook Islands). Under the new constitution, not only the Kanakas, but also the much-feared Chinese, who came to Australia during the gold rush, would not be allowed into Australia. Thus, there was a push for Federation (which eventually happened in 1901) which would eliminate unwanted foreigners, providing more employment for Australians.

The California Gold Rush of 1849 & the building of the transcontinental railroads all began in California; so California is where the Chinese settled...besides, they still had thousands of miles of levies to build in the Sacramento Valley.

To become a naturalized citizen of the United States, a foreign national first must meet several legal standards: Entry, residence, and physical presence : The applicant must lawfully enter the country and gain legal permanent resident status. After becoming a legal resident, a foreign national must reside in the United States continuously for five years (or three years for spouses of American citizens). During that period, he or she must be physically present in the country for at least fifty percent of the time.
