Similar factors pushed immigrants from their home countries and into the United States. These are called push-pull factors. Immigrants left their homelands because of poverty, war, or starvation. The main factor that pulled immigrants to the United States was purely economical. Many of them had hopes of securing jobs or land. 

The overseas journey was very difficult for immigrants. Most of them traveled in steerage, and many of them became ill during their long voyage in cramped and dirty quarters. Ellis Island in New York Harbor became the main entry point for European immigrants. Upon arrival, doctors inspected immigrants for diseases, and officials interviewed them about their background. Those with diseases or certain political views were refused entry. 

Immigrants from Asia arrived at Angel Island in San Francisco Bay. However, by that time Angel Island opened in 1910, the Chinese Exclusion Act had already put limitations on Chinese immigration. Angel Island officials often held  immigrants at facilities for months before accepting or rejecting their entries.

Read this quotation. President Jackson used his veto power extensively. The vetoed twelve bills during his years in office-more
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

The veto occurs when a president objects to a bill or resolution. The president either sends the bill back to Congress with a message explaining his objections or withholds his signature during the 10-day review period allowed by the Constitution and Congress adjourns during that period, the bill doesn’t become a law. There is no limit number of vetoes per presidential term. For example, Present Jackson used his veto power extensively. 12 bills was vetoed during his years in office, which is higher than all previous president combined. Overriding a presidential veto requires a two-thirds majority in both the House and the Senate.
