The Civil Liberties Act of 1988 was signed by President Ronald Reagan in an effort to repay a terrible wrong that had been done to Japanese Americans and Japanese visitors to this country during World War II, when thousands were placed in internment camps, simply because of their heritage. The act awarded these people or their descendants $20,000 each to make up for what they had suffered. Each one also received an official apology from the President of the United States. The act specifically stated that the government had forced these internments based on "race prejudice, war hysteria, and a failure of political leadership."
