The correct answer is immigration.

Immigration in the US has a mixed past. Even though America has been viewed as a land of freedom and economic opportunity, there have been some laws in the past that have greatly affected immigrants. One of them is the Immigration Act of 1924. This severely limited the amount of immigrants allowed from one country.

Along with this, immigrants during the early 20th century often had to pass tests or physical exams in order to enter the US. This was especially true at Angel Island. At this site  immigrants had to perform physical activities.Sometimes, these activities were done in a group setting where the immigrants were forced to be naked.

What 1935 law outlawed "unfair labor practices," and was known at the time as "labor's magna carta"?
Oxana [17]
This law is known as the National Labor Relations Act. This law was part of president Franklin D. Roosevelt's "New Deal." This New Deal was supposed to help American society recover from the Great Depression while also providing relief for American citizens.

Through this National Labor Relations Act, employees gained more protection from businesses owners and the right to collective bargaining. This concept of collective bargaining allows employees to negotiate their wages, benefits, and other elements of their work environment with their managers. This allows employees to have more control over their everyday work life.

Why wasn't the Missouri Compromise of 1820 enough to end tension between the North and South by the 1840s?
Lerok [7]

Answer: Some new territories went both above and below the line of compromise.

Explanation:

The Missouri Compromise divided Northern and Southern states on the slaves issue. The compromised passed as law in 1820, <u>it forbade slavery in Louisiana and it considered Missouri as a slave state. Anything north the 36/30 parallel was considered slave free.</u>

However, since the state of Missouri was considered a slave state, the South had one state more than the North and it was considered that the slave states had more power, because a slave counted as 3/5 of a person.

Thomas Jefferson predicted that dividing the country between slave and slave free states would lead the country to civil war.
