American immigration restrictions following the 1924 immigration act were limited by nationality, not ethnicity or religion.

Germany in the 1920s and 1930s sent a number of people to the United States that was well below the German quota, and had the United States not amended the laws specifically to keep out German Jews, Germany's Jews could have legally come to the United States.

What if the US just stuck with the original law and all of Germany's Jews made it to America?
