According to Soylu, there was an open immigration policy up until 1924 in America until the National Origins Act came into effect.[20] According to the Immigration Act of 1924 which is a United States federal law, it limited the annual number of immigrants who could be admitted from any country to 2% of the number of people from that country who were already living in the United States in 1890, down from the 3% cap set by the Immigration Restriction Act of 1921, according to the Census of 1890 It superseded the 1921 Emergency Quota Act. The law was primarily aimed at further restricting immigration of Southern Europeans and Eastern Europeans.	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-8003.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-8003.txt
