1907-1911: Dillingham Commission - This commission concluded that the rise in immigration for South and East Europe was a threat to the fabric of the United States. As a result of the findings of this commission, immigration was severely curtailed, and the previously lax immigration policies were amended to require literacy. Additionally, national origin quotas began going into effect, and an emphasis was placed on immigrants from countries perceived as more in line with American values. (1 jan 1907 ano – 1 jan 1911 ano)
