IMMIGRATION
An
immigrant
is
a
person
who
comes
to
live
in
another
country.
Immigrants
came
to
live
in
the
United
States
for
many
reasons:
•
political
freedom
•
religious
freedom
•
to
join
their
family
who
was
already
here
•
forced
to
come
as
slaves
•
in
hopes
of
a
job,
money,
or
land
•
because
of
problems
in
their
home
country
(Potato
Famine
in
Ireland
in
1845)
Most
immigrants
in
the
1800s
came
by
boat.
The
boats
were
very
crowded.
They
had
bad
food,
bugs,
and
disease.
There
were
bad
storms
and
people
got
very
seasick.
Boats
often
arrived
at
Ellis
Island
on
the
East
Coast
or
Angel
Island
on
the
West
Coast.
These
places
were
called
Federal
Immigration
Stations.
The
Statue
of
Liberty
is
in
the
New
York
Harbor.
It
became
known
as
the
“lady
of
hope”
who
welcomed
immigrants
to
their
new
home.
Restrictions
At
some
times
in
U.S.
history,
there
have
been
millions
of
people
coming
into
the
U.S.
as
immigrants.
At
other
times,
immigration
has
been
restricted,
or
limited.
For
example:
•
Chinese
Exclusion
Act
of
1882:
This
law
kept
Chinese
workers
from
coming
into
the
U.S.
for
ten
years.
•
In
1891,
criminals
were
not
allowed
to
come
into
the
U.S.
•
Sometimes
there
have
been
quota
laws.
This
kind
of
law
limits
the
number
of
immigrants.
It
also
told
how
many
people
could
come
from
certain
countries.

Citizenship
In
order
to
become
citizens,
immigrants
go
through
a
process
called
naturalization.
Back
in
1790,
there
was
a
Naturalization
Act
that
was
passed.
It
let
white
men
who
lived
in
the
U.S.
for
two
years
become
citizens.
Today,
it
is
not
just
white
men
who
can
become
citizens.
People
who
go
through
the
process
of
naturalization
can
become
citizens.
Any
baby
who
is
born
in
the
U.S.
is
a
citizen.
