The correct statement regarding the factors that made U.S. immigration policies more exclusionary and isolationist in the late 1800s is:
**An influx of non-White immigrants caused concerns about racial purity in the U.S. This drove public opinion toward isolationism and pushed policies that restricted and excluded immigrants that came from non-European countries.**
During this period, there was growing concern about the racial and cultural homogeneity of the United States, particularly as large numbers of immigrants from Southern and Eastern Europe, as well as from Asia and other non-European regions, began to arrive. This led to fears about the impact of these groups on American society, work, and values, fueling a movement toward more restrictive immigration policies, including the introduction of laws that specifically targeted non-White immigrants and those from countries outside of Europe. The resulting legislation, including the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 and the Immigration Act of 1924, reflected these exclusionary sentiments.
