Answer 1

Immigration became less restricted in the U.S. after World War II as public opinion shifted to favor it. This was due in part to the need for labor to help rebuild the economy and infrastructure after the war, as well as the passage of the Displaced Persons Act of 1948, which allowed for the admission of refugees and displaced persons. Additionally, the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 (also known as the McCarran-Walter Act) further relaxed immigration restrictions and allowed for more diverse immigration from around the world.
