US Immigration policy shifted from open to restrictive primarily due to concerns over national security, economic stability, and social cohesion. The influx of immigrants in the late 19th and early 20th centuries led to fears about job competition, cultural integration, and the impact of diverse backgrounds on American society. Events such as World War I, the Great Depression, and the rise of nativist movements further fueled calls for stricter immigration controls, culminating in legislation like the Immigration Act of 1924, which established quotas based on national origin. These changes reflected a broader sentiment prioritizing a homogenous national identity over the previously celebrated multiculturalism.
