In this episode of Signed Into Law, we examine the National Origins Act of 1924, one of the most restrictive immigration laws in American history. This landmark legislation established strict national origin quotas that drastically limited immigration from Southern and Eastern Europe while completely banning Asian immigration. Discover how this law reshaped America's demographic landscape and reflected the nativist sentiments of the 1920s.

Join us as we explore the political climate that led to this controversial act, its devastating impact on families and communities worldwide, and its lasting legacy on American immigration policy. Understanding this pivotal moment helps us contextualize modern debates about borders, identity, and who gets to call America home.
