Between 1861 and 1940, approximately 400,000 Japanese immigrants came to the United States. The influx was particularly significant during the early 20th century, as many sought better economic opportunities and worked primarily in agriculture and labor-intensive industries. However, immigration restrictions and anti-Japanese sentiments later impacted the flow of newcomers, particularly with the Immigration Act of 1924, which effectively banned Japanese immigration.

President Franklin D. Roosevelt addressed Japanese immigration primarily through the implementation of the Immigration Act of 1924, which effectively banned Japanese immigration by excluding all Asian immigrants from entering the United States. This policy was rooted in widespread racial prejudice and aimed at limiting the Asian population. During World War II, Roosevelt's administration further impacted Japanese Americans by issuing Executive Order 9066, which led to the internment of thousands of Japanese Americans, reflecting a climate of fear and discrimination rather than a resolution of immigration issues. Ultimately, the combination of these actions severely restricted Japanese immigration and affected the rights of Japanese Americans.

The Gentlemen's Agreement was an informal agreement between the United States and Japan in the early 20th century, specifically around 1907-1908. It aimed to address tensions regarding Japanese immigration to the U.S. By this agreement, Japan agreed to limit the emigration of its citizens to the U.S., while the U.S. would not impose formal restrictions on Japanese immigrants. This agreement was significant in shaping U.S.-Japan relations and immigration policy during that period.
