How did the cold war affect immigration in the US?

The Cold War significantly influenced U.S. immigration policies and patterns, as the government sought to attract individuals from countries aligned with Western ideologies while restricting those from communist nations.

Additionally, the ideological battle against communism fostered a sense of urgency to provide asylum to those fleeing oppressive regimes, leading to increased immigration from Eastern Europe, Cuba, and Vietnam. Overall, the Cold War shaped a complex landscape of immigration that responded to geopolitical tensions and humanitarian concerns.
