The Immigration Act of 1924 was a United States federal law that significantly limited immigration by establishing national origins quotas, which aimed to restrict the number of immigrants from certain countries, particularly those from Southern and Eastern Europe, while favoring immigrants from Northern and Western Europe. This act reflects the broader trends of nativism and racial discrimination prevalent in the U.S. during the early 20th century.
