The Immigration and Naturalization Act of 1965 abolished national origin quotas for immigration. Prior to this act, immigration quotas were based on national origin, favoring Northern and Western Europeans and severely restricting immigration from other parts of the world, including Asia and Africa. The act removed this discriminatory system and established a new immigration policy based on family reunification and job skills.
