The Immigration Act of 1924 was a United States federal law that limited the number of immigrants allowed entry into the country, establishing a quota system based on national origins. This legislation aimed to preserve the ideal of American homogeneity by significantly reducing immigration from Southern and Eastern Europe while favoring immigrants from Northern and Western Europe. It reflects the xenophobic sentiments of the era and had a lasting impact on U.S. immigration policy.
