Bryant Crenshaw · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : C, Explanation :  The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965, also known as the Hart-Celler Act, abolished the national origins quota system that had structured America's immigration policy since the 1920s, replacing it with a preference system that focused on immigrants' skills and family relationships with citizens or U.S. residents. This significantly changed the main source of immigration from Europe to Asia and the Americas.
