Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 barred Chinese laborers from immigrating to the United States, and the Foran Act of 1885 prohibited the importation of contract laborers. Both of these acts were renewed and expanded by congressional legislation in the early 1900s. The other options (illiterates, Jews, and socialists) were not specifically targeted by congressional legislation during this time period.
