The Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882: A law that said Chinese immigrants were no longer allowed to come in to the country for work.

Immigration Act of 1924 limited the number of immigrants who could be admitted from any country to 2% of the number of person from that country who were already living in the United States in 1890
