Answer:

Senator Meyer Jacobstein stood against it.

Explanation:

The immigration act of 1924 limited the number of immigrants coming into the United States. For the first time, this act restricts the immigration by establishing a quota system which eliminated Asians to entering America.

Senator Meyer Jacobstein of New York argued against immigration restrictions in 1924 in congressional speech. He was in favour of allowing others to immigrate in America without any restrictions. He gave his statement on supporting the Constitution, which allowed everyone to be equal. He said that the immigration act of 1924 tends to put certain people in the status of superior and another as inferior.
