In essence, this act excluded chinese people who were “skilled and unskilled laborers and employed in mining” from immigrating to the United States. After the Chinese Exclusion Act had expired, it had been renewed alongside with the Geary Act, forced all Chinese people to hold “certificates of residence.” As evident in the Chinese Exclusion Act and the Geary Act…
