How did congress try to limit immagration in the 1920s?

In the 1920s, Congress sought to limit immigration primarily through the Immigration Act of 1924, which established national origin quotas. This legislation restricted the number of immigrants allowed entry into the United States, favoring immigrants from Northern and Western Europe while severely limiting those from Southern and Eastern Europe, as well as virtually excluding immigrants from Asia. The act reflected the nativist sentiments of the time and aimed to preserve the existing demographic composition of the country. Overall, these measures significantly reduced immigration levels and shaped U.S. immigration policy for decades.

Can the president change a law without the approval of congress and the senate?

No, not possible. However, to a limited extent the President can fail to enforce the law or selectively enforce the parts that he likes. An example would the immigration law in the case of Obama. If he does this, he is subject to laws suits and Congress may write a new law that is more clear or else impeach and try him for malfeasance.


Why did china try to end immigration to the US?

In 1868 Burlingame Treaty, political and labor organizations rallied against the immigration of what they regarded as a degraded race and "cheap Chinese labor." Newspapers condemned the policies of employers, and even church leaders denounced the entrance of these aliens into what was regarded as a land for whites only. So hostile was the opposition that in 1882 the United States Congress eventually passed the Chinese Exclusion Act, which prohibited immigration from China for the next ten years.
