Background
[edit]Chinese-American immigration
[edit]Traditionally, the Chinese American community united against efforts by the Immigration and Naturalization Service at mass deportation. However, during the 1940s Chinese Civil War, the anti-Communist Guomindang party created alliances with conservative forces in America's Chinatowns to give the INS the names of undocumented Chinese-Americans with suspected leftist sympathies.[1] ... CCBA reaction to founding of PRC. GMD violence in Chinatown. ...
Social atmosphere
[edit]Everett F. Drumright warning. Attitudes of American non-Chinese?
Atmosphere in Chinatowns following the revolution.
Legal basis
[edit]The McCarran Internal Security Act of 1950 allows the President of the United States to suspend habeus corpus and detain subjects at will. The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 eliminated the statute of limitations for almost all deportable offenses and enabled the expulsion of aliens "prejudicial to the public interest".[2]
Enforcement
[edit]Not created by legislation, so no guarantees. Stop and ask. Hanging.
Persecution of leftists
[edit]Dissolution of labor, Communist, "pro-China" organizations.
Effectiveness
[edit]Numbers and questions about them. INS incentives.
Aftermath
[edit]After the passage of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965, immigrants were not selected based on "race", such as "Chinese", but on nationality. As a result, the INS stopped counting Overseas Chinese from places like Southeast Asia and the Americas as "Chinese".[1]
