In all the decisions I have made in my public life, I have always tried to do what was best for the Nation. Throughout the long

and difficult period of Watergate, I have felt it was my duty to persevere, to make every possible effort to complete the term of office to which you elected me.
In the past few days, however, it has become evident to me that I no longer have a strong enough political base in the Congress to justify continuing that effort. As long as there was such a base, I felt strongly that it was necessary to see the constitutional process through to its conclusion, that to do otherwise would be unfaithful to the spirit of that deliberately difficult process and a dangerously destabilizing precedent for the future.

But with the disappearance of that base, I now believe that the constitutional purpose has been served, and there is no longer a need for the process to be prolonged.

—President Richard Nixon

Answer:

Explanation:

The red scare of the 1920s was a terrible event in the history of America and it led the Congress to immediately pass the Emergency quota Act of 1921.

The emergency qouta act was introduced basically to reduce the rate at which foreign born immigrants or citizens were coming into America.

Native born Americans saw immigrants from other countries as a threat and although the number of immigrants increased prior to the red scared of 1920, the Emergency qouta act reduced influx of foreign citizens into the United states. Statistics showed that the number of immigrants was significantly reduced by half the originally published number.
