State at least 4 arguments that 'nativists' would use against the new immigrants arriving after 1880 in an attempt to stop their influx into the country?

1.  The Catholic Church represented tyranny and potential subjugation to a foreign power and most of the immigrants were Catholics by faith while the natives were mostly protestants.

2. Competition for jobs increased as new laborers arrived.

4. Fears that foreigners were gaining undue political influence because of the efforts of unscrupulous politicians to woo them and “steal” elections

4. Irish and Germans are immoral drunkards and often blamed them for social ills, such as rising crime and poverty rates

Explanation:

Nativism, in general, refers to a policy or belief that protects or favors the interest of the native population of a country over the interests of immigrants.

The United States has long conceived of itself as a haven for immigrants, a place welcoming of any person, no matter their origin, to begin a new life as an American. Flying in the face of this ideal, an ugly strain of nativism has run throughout American history as evidenced by virulent anti-immigrant movements that reared up in the 1790s, 1870s, and 1920s.
