Dillingham Immigration Act

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Immigration Restriction Act of 1921 limited the number of immigrants to the US to 3% of the population of their nationality already in the United States in 1910. This reduced the number of immigrants to America to less than a quarter of what it was before World War I.
