Answer:
- eased restrictions on immigration by ending the previous quota system.
Step-by-step explanation:
'Immigration Act of 1965' terminated the previously existing formula of National Origins/ the quota system that discriminated the immigrants on the basis of their race. The law brought in by Johnson allowed the Eastern, Westerns, as well as, Southern Europeans to receive equal treatment regardless of their race or their country of origin. The key reason behind the decision was that the majority of American immigrants were originated/born in either Canada or Europe. Thus, this law mitigated the limitations levied on the immigration.
