Answer:

<em>Hello! ^^ Jaesuk~Sakai Here!</em>

Explanation:

<em>The Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 was the first significant law restricting immigration into the United States. Many Americans on the West Coast attributed declining wages and economic ills to Chinese workers. Although the Chinese composed only .002 percent of the nation's population, Congress passed the exclusion act to placate worker demands and assuage prevalent concerns about maintaining white "racial purity."</em>

What are some reasons why Texans are opposed to rewriting the state’s constitution?
solmaris [256]

There were many reasons for Texan constitution to be rewritten and the major reason is that its too long and disorganized.

Explanation:

Texan constitution is too lengthy and difficult to understand because many amendments were included and thus making it one of the confused constitutions in the world. The current constitution limits the governor’s executive power. The legislatures meet for a short period of time for every two years which makes the governing difficult.

The officials in the legislature are underpaid which may cause them to fall to the biased interests of many groups specially lobbyists.The constitution seems to be outdated and the public have to raise their voice in favor of rewriting the constitution.
