Answer:

Restrict immigration through the use of quotas.

Step-by-step explanation:

People back then were really r*cist towards people of color, different nationalities, and they disliked it when people from other countries came to America for jobs. They believed that they were stealing all of their jobs and they were also treated really badly, it goes way past the ra*cism.
