Question: For the following consider the cases below: Chae Chan Ping v. United States, 130 U.S. 581 Arizona v. United States, 132 S.Ct. 2492 The Court

For the following consider the cases below:

  • Chae Chan Ping v. United States, 130 U.S. 581
  • Arizona v. United States, 132 S.Ct. 2492

The Court provides factual background of what led to the changes in federal legislation with immigration from China. The Court notes how Chinese laborers originally came to the U.S. and how they were received by people already in the U.S., particularly those in California.

How did the California legislature react to the influx of Chinese immigrants?

What do you think about the Court's description of these events? Do you see any parallels between those facts and the sentiments of the people then and today, for example in Arizona when SB 1070 was passed?
