America was reluctant to accept Jewish immigrants in the early 20th century due to a combination of economic concerns, widespread anti-Semitism, and prevailing nativist attitudes. Many Americans feared that an influx of Jewish immigrants would take jobs away from native-born citizens and strain social services.
