Question 4 • CA-Ethnic Studies

Which policy is an example of restrictive immigration?

Answer
A
Immigration Act of 1990
B
Temporary Protected Status
C
Emergency Quota Act of 1921
D
Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals

Explanation

The Emergency Quota Act of 1921 restricted immigration by setting numerical limits on how many people could enter the United States, including quotas based on national origin. The Immigration Act of 1990 expanded immigration, while Temporary Protected Status and DACA provide forms of temporary protection or relief rather than imposing immigration quotas.
