Are you talking about the Italian immigrants, the English, the Germans, the Japanese, the Spanish, the French and lets not forget the fucking Irish!
Because in every immigration wave, there's been the same response from clucks like yourself.

U.S. Immigration Before 1965 - Facts & Summary - HISTORY.com

During the mid-1800s, a significant number of Asian immigrants settled in the United States. Lured by news of the California gold rush, some 25,000 Chinese had migrated there by the early 1850s.

The influx of newcomers resulted in anti-immigrant sentiment among certain factions of America’s native-born, predominantly Anglo-Saxon Protestant population. The new arrivals were often seen as unwanted competition for jobs, while many Catholics–especially the Irish–experienced discrimination for their religious beliefs. In the 1850s, the anti-immigrant, anti-Catholic American Party (also called the Know-Nothings) tried to severely curb immigration, and even ran a candidate, former U.S. president Millard Fillmore (1800-1874), in the presidential election of 1956.

It would seem the Know-Nothings are still in control.
