Question 9 of 10 Which group most strongly supported the Chinese Exclusion Act?
O A. Protestant missionaries
B. Farmers in the South
O C. Workers in the West
O D. Eastern business leaders

The group most strongly supported by the Chinese Exclusion Act was workers in the west.

The Chinese Exclusion Act was one of the United States signed at the end of the 19th century in which the immigration ban of Chinese workers to the United States was established.

The main precedent for the implementation of this law was the high supply of cheap Chinese labor that increased unemployment among American workers (mainly from the west, in the State of California).

During those years, the Chinese offered their cheap labor and were hired for important infrastructure works such as:

This increased segregation towards the Chinese population who were being restricted to prevent them from "taking" jobs from Americans. However, with the passage of the Chinese Exclusion Act, the Chinese were directly rejected in the United States.

The Chinese Exclusion Act was the first and remains the only, law that was implemented to prevent all members of a group from a specific ethnic or national go as immigrants to the United States.

According to the above, the correct option is C. While options A, B, and D are incorrect because they refer to populations that did not benefit from the Chinese Exclusion Act.
