Best Answer

The National Origins Act was passed in 1924. There was an emergency legislation passed in 1921. Both acts were designed to limit Immigration. Theses acts were repealed in 1965.

Immigration hit a low point in 1931, but has risen steadily ever since. It has never been higher than it is currently. However, because the population of the US is so high, the actual percentage of foreign born people is lowering.
