After the attack on Pearl Harbor,  people started to fear and doubt the loyalty of Japanese Americans. President Roosevelt evacuated all people deemed a threat to national security from the West Coast, and moved them further in land. The order allowed commanders of power to create military areas for people to be kept if necessary.

Japanese families were given the option to evacuate their homes on their own, but eventually over 120,000 Japanese people were sent to live in internment camps. Many of them had to live in temporary housing before the camps were finished. Children would go to barrack schools and adults would work for no more than $5. Many Japanese people couldn't return to their homes or jobs after the order was over. Some also lost their belongings and family members. The order sparked constitutional and political debate over whether or not the order was right to do. In 1988, Congress passed a law that acknowledged the injustice of the internment that provided a 20,000$ cash payment to each person who was intended. It caused the United States West Coast to be a hostile military zone, and Japanese Americans were seen as a threat.

Who- President Theodore Roosevelt, Japanese descendants

When- dated February 19, 1942

Where- Parts of California, Washington state, and Arizona. Close to vital war assets and military bases

What- Provided the military with the power to ban citizens with Japanese ancestry in a 50 to 60 mile radius in Washington state to California, and extending into southern Arizona.

Why- Large amounts of Japanese Americans were in close proximity to war assets along the pacific coast. The military commanders didn't trust them and didn't want them to be so close.

How- Nobody trusted the Japanese Americans after the bombing of Pearl Harbor. This caused the military commanders to not want them near, so Theodore Roosevelt created the Executive Order 9066.

After the bombing on Pearl Harbor, many Americans began to lose trust in the Japanese citizens that resided in America. It was hard to be certain that they weren't spies working to plot another attack on the United States. This fear of the Japanese being spies or soldiers working for Japan caused panic and hysteria within the United States. The fear and hysteria of American citizens was also shared with military and political advisors. The public, along with the advisors, pressured Roosevelt into enforcing the order.

Around the time of 1861 and 1940 nearly 275,000 Japanese immigrated to Hawaii and the mainland of the United States. Many worked on farms and fields, cultivating fruit and other materials. However, On February 19,1942, President Franklin D. Roosevelt issued Executive Order 9006. This order would cause the lives of Japanese to change drastically. Around 120,000 Japanese were involuntary removed from the West Coast and put into assembly centers. They were then put into isolated, fenced, and guarded centers. They were known as internment camps. Some of the residents put into the camps were American citizens. Because of the order, many citizens in the camps lost liabilities including their property and homes. Overall, the order put a biased stereotype on Japanese people and in turn, caused them to lose their belongings without cause.

The Japanese natives that resided in America had a great impact on crops and cultivating fruits, fishing, and owning small businesses. However, they contribution to the country and economy was cut off with executive order 9066. Anti-Asian views were found all over America during 1942. Those of Japanese decent were forced from their home and put into camps. There they would be confined to only the camp and do as they were told. The only belongings they had were those that they could carry with their hands. Many lost their homes, jobs, land, and even family. The same Japanese citizens helping America were also being convicted of being Japanese spies. Overall, the Japanese residing in America in this time were treated poorly.

Executive order 9066 was initiated due to pressure from military and political advisors. The fear of future Japanese attacks or sabotages was prevalent during this time. More specifically on the West Coast due to naval ports, commercial and agricultural regions. Eleanor Roosevelt was appalled by her husband's actions to go through with the order. This is because it essentially violated the Bill of Rights. She warned her husband against it, but he didn't listen nor talk about it. Others also didn't like the order, and in 1976, Gerald Ford signed an order prohibiting the executive branch from re-instituting the order.
