The correct response is:

It attracted immigrants to Texas by prioritizing the bringing back together of families.

The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 removed earlier quotas based on national origin and emphasized family reunification, which encouraged more immigrants to come to the U.S., including Texas, to join family members already residing there.
