In 1830, the Mexican government enacted a law that prohibited further American Immigration into Texas, aiming to curb the growing influence of Anglo settlers in the region. This legislation also imposed tariffs on goods imported from the United States, which angered many Texians and fueled resentment towards the Mexican authorities. The act was seen as an infringement on the rights of settlers and contributed to rising tensions that eventually led to the Texas Revolution.
