		Others favored a change in the law for more personal reasons — they had relatives who were on long immigration waiting lists because of small quotas for their countries.
		Another factor in intensifying the impact of immigration is a reduced rate of emigration — that is, more of today's newcomers stay for their whole lives, rather than returning to the old country after a few years.
		In addition, the act instituted a system to give preference (within the national origins quotas) to foreigners with education or skills, as well as relatives — this was the predecessor of today's preference system.

	Immigration to the United States - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Immigration to the United States of America is the movement of non-residents to the United States, and has been a major source of population growth and cultural change throughout much of the American history even though the foreign born have never been more than 15% of the population since about 1675.
		Immigration boomed to a 57.4% increase in foreign born population from 1990 to 2000.
		The first naturalization law in the United States was the March 26, 1790 Naturalization Act which restricted naturalization to "free white persons" of "good moral character" who had resided in the country for two years and their current state of residence for a year.

	A Vast Social Experiment: The Immigration Act of 1965
		The nation's national origins-grounded immigration laws could not escape an assault by these reformist passions, and critics of the national origins system found the liberal wing of the Democratic Party receptive to their demand that immigration reform should be a part of the civil rights agenda.
		As historian Betty Koed observed in her history of the 1965 act, editorials and letters to the editor "in smaller cities and towns" revealed "widespread condemnation of the new immigration bill" and of the idea of "liberalizing" immigration policy.
		But the 1965 Immigration Act was not given much contemporary attention in a decade of social upheaval and a war in Vietnam, was not mentioned by Lyndon Johnson in his memoirs, and is routinely allotted one or two sentences in history text books.

	ParaPundit: Senate Immigration Act Would Create Labor Bureaucracy
		Libertarians and pro-business conservatives who favor immigration and open borders are supposedly squaring off against conservatives who favor law, order, and national security.
		If the goal of immigration reform is to enhance the liberty and prosperity of the U.S. and its citizens, then a robust flow of immigrants is desirable.[1] But that logic hinges on two assumptions: that immigrants are coming to America for work, not welfare, and that reform will improve, not hinder, the labor market.
		The law would require potential employers to submit paperwork making ten different certifications, including that any migrant worker won’t impact wages in the specific occupation they are entering.
