1965年经常被认为是美国移民史上的一个转折点，但随后几年发生的事情并没有得到很好的理解。同年通过的《移民和国籍法》修正案废除了国籍配额，该配额是在20世纪20年代制定的，旨在限制南欧和东欧移民的入境，或者更具体地说，限制来自俄罗斯帕莱的犹太人和来自波兰和意大利的天主教徒，这些群体当时被认为是“不可同化的”。配额补充了已经实施的禁止亚洲人和非洲人入境的禁令。1965年的修正案旨在清除移民法中的种族主义遗产，用一种新的制度取代旧的配额，根据基于家庭团聚和劳动力需求的中立偏好制度分配居留签证。人们普遍认为，新制度促使移民的构成从欧洲转向亚洲和拉丁美洲，移民人数也随之沿着大幅增加。
The year 1965 is often cited as a turning point in the history of US immigration, but what happened in the ensuing years is not well understood. Amendments to the Immigration and Nationality Act passed in that year repealed the national origins quotas, which had been enacted during the 1920s in a deliberate attempt to limit the entry of Southern and Eastern European immigrants—or more specifically Jews from the Russian Pale and Catholics from Poland and Italy, groups at the time deemed “unassimilable.” The quotas supplemented prohibitions already in place that effectively banned the entry of Asians and Africans. The 1965 amendments were intended to purge immigration law of its racist legacy by replacing the old quotas with a new system that allocated residence visas according to a neutral preference system based on family reunification and labor force needs. The new system is widely credited with having sparked a shift in the composition of immigration away from Europe toward Asia and Latin America, along with a substantial increase in the number of immigrants.
