Inclusion criteria[edit]

What are the inclusion criteria for this list? — Mr. Guye (talk) (contribs) 01:41, 21 January 2018 (UTC) Merely being an American immigration law. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.1.37.70 (talk) 10:03, 25 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Specified description of certain Immigration Acts[edit]

The "Immigration Act of 1882" is described as the "First comprehensive immigration law for the US", and then the "Immigration Act of 1891" is described as being the "First comprehensive immigration laws for the US". Is this somewhat contradictory? Unless the author meant that the Immigration Act of 1882 was one comprehensive immigration law, and the Immigration Act of 1891 was a set of comprehensive immigration laws? Perhaps more specificity is necessary?
