The 1921 Emergency Quota Act and the 1924 Immigration Act were the first laws since the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1884 that blocked or limited immigrant by law. Different quotas were put on different immigrant groups. Because they had not had substantial representation in America prior to 1890, groups like the Polish and Italians were given very small quotas.
