Answer:

The National Origins Act restricted the number of immigrants from any given country to 2 percent of the number of current Americans from that country .

Explanation:

The Immigration Act of 1924, including the National Origins Act, was a federal law in the United States that restricted immigration from each country to 2% of the number from the same country that lived in the United States at the 1890 census, in instead of 3% as in the Immigration Restriction Act of 1921.

The law was mainly aimed at restricting immigration from southern Europe and eastern Europe, many Jews fled from persecution in Poland and Russia, and the wave of immigration had been going on since the 1890s, as well as from the Middle East, East Asia and India.

How do these headlines reflect the relevance of the bill of rights to current events?
Vesnalui [34]

These headlines speak about the law on the sale and carrying of firearms, as well as the legality of the existing Gun Control Law. Gun control is a set of laws that regulate the production, sale, transfer, possession and use of firearms. According to Second Amendment of the Constitution that the well-regulated militias necessary for the security of the free State, as well as the right of the people to guard and carry weapons, will not be infringed. While any other law that infringes the operational clause of the amendment, violates it. So all these headlines represent a debate about the Second Amendment.

The answer is: D.
