The War Brides Act (Public Law 271) was enacted in 1945 to allow spouses and adopted children of United States military personnel to enter the U.S. after World War II.[1] The law temporarily lifted the ban on Asian immigration and the quotas on European immigration that had been established by the Immigration Act of 1924. The provisions of the War Brides Act were extended and amended by the Alien Fiancées and Fiancés Act of 1946 and the Soldier Brides Acts of 1946 and 1947. The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 removed race as a limiting factor in immigration, and made possible the entry of military spouses and children from South Korea after the Korean War. ~ Wikipedia

Yes, the Congress has passed laws restricting immigration and setting quotas. One significant example is the Immigration Act of 1924, also known as the Johnson-Reed Act, which established numerical limits on immigration based on nationality. These quotas heavily favored immigrants from Western and Northern European countries while limiting immigration from other regions, such as Asia and Eastern Europe.

It established quotas that favored immigrants from Western European countries and severely restricted immigration from Southern and Eastern European countries, as well as Asia. The act was implemented as a response to increasing nativist sentiment and concerns over the cultural and economic impact of immigration.
