Libtards who say immigration ban is UnAmerican are Wrong.. we have long history of restrictive immigration laws..see inside

Despite liberals attempts to claim the US has a history of open and free immigration. Here is a list of just some of the restrictive immigration laws we have enacted:

1875 The Page Act
>The first federal immigration law and prohibited the entry of immigrants considered as "undesirable"

1882 Chinese Exclusion Act
>Restricted immigration of Chinese laborers for 10 years.
Prohibited Chinese naturalization.

1885. Alien Contract Labor Law
>Prohibited the importation and migration of foreigners and aliens under contract or agreement to perform labor in the United States

1891 Immigration Act of 1891
>Immigration Bureau directed to deport unlawful aliens

1892. Geary Act
>Extended and strengthened the Chinese Exclusion Act.

1903 Immigration Act of 1903 (Anarchist Exclusion Act)
>Added four inadmissible classes: anarchists, people with epilepsy, beggars, and importers of prostitutes

1906 Naturalization Act of 1906
>made some knowledge of English a requirement for citizenship

1907 Immigration Act of 1907
>Restricted immigration for certain classes of disabled and diseased people

1917 Immigration Act of 1917 (Barred Zone Act)
>Restricted immigration from Asia by creating an "Asiatic Barred Zone" and introduced a reading test for all immigrants over fourteen years of age

1918 Immigration Act of 1918
>Expanded on the provisions of the Anarchist Exclusion Act.

1921 Emergency Quota Act
>Limited the number of immigrants from any country to 3% of those already in the US from that country as per the 1910 census.

1924 Immigration Act (Johnson-Reed Act)
>Imposed first permanent numerical limit on immigration.

1924 National Origins Formula
>Total annual immigration was capped at 150,000. Immigrants fit into two categories: those from quota-nations and those from non-quota nations.

1952. Immigration and Nationality Act
>Set a quota for aliens with skills needed in the US.
Increased the power of the government to deport illegal immigrants suspected ofCommunist sympathies.

1965 INA Amendments (Hart-Celler Act)
>Initiated a visa system for family reunification and skills.
Set a quota for Western Hemisphere immigration.

Of course, from this point forward, progressives got control, and made a mockery of our borders.

But the point stands, we have had a much longer history of restrictive immigration laws, then not. So liberals saying, the new Exectutive Order is Un-American shows tremendous ignorance of U.S. history.
