Although there have been random transitions in the US Immigration policies traditionally, off late developments are towards a more stringent immigration law and rule.

Here goes a brief overview of the rules of immigration in the USA:

The Naturalization Act (1790) established rules for naturalized citizenship [as per Article 1(8) of the Constitution of the USA].

The Chinese Exclusion Act (1882) was the first and the sole race-based immigration act in the USA.

The Immigration Act (1924) restricted the ethnic distribution in response to rising immigration from Southern and Eastern Europe, and Asia.

How did new laws change US immigration policy in the 1920's?

The new laws in the 1920s significantly changed US immigration policy by introducing quotas and restrictions. The Immigration Act of 1921 established the first-ever numerical quotas for immigrants based on their nationality. The Immigration Act of 1924, also known as the Johnson-Reed Act, further restricted immigration by setting even stricter quotas based on the national origins of immigrants and completely banned immigration from certain regions, particularly Asia. These laws aimed to limit immigration and preserve the ethnic composition of the United States.
