Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Parliament has made a large number of extremely positive and supportive statements about immigration and about EU citizens resident in the UK. You can read these online in Hansard - the official written record of parliamentary proceedings. For example, this debate happened on 12 July:
