[...]combined with congressional inaction, executive actions have created a system of exclusion that influences the experiences of legal immigrants now and will again in the future. Immigrant visas from Eastern Hemisphere countries were capped at an annual limit of 170,000, and visas from the Western Hemisphere were capped at an annual limit of 120,000. [...]a global limit |
