Question

"I would be true to the principles for which my forefathers fought and true to the real spirit of the magnificent United States of to-day. I can not stultify [reduce] myself by voting for the present bill and overwhelm my country with racial hatreds and racial lines and antagonisms drawn even tighter than they are to-day."—Representative Robert H. Clancy, from his speech before Congress on April 8, 1924
Clancy's remarks were directed at the:

restrictions against black voter registration
ban against Chinese immigration
creation of separate public schools for blacks
establishment of restrictive immigration quotas

Answer 1

The correct answer is D) establishment of restrictive immigration quotas.

Clancy's remarks were directed at the establishment of restrictive immigration quotas.

We are talking about Michigan legislator Robert H. Clancy, who, on April 8, 1924, denounced that immigration quotas were not the kind of legislation US Congress had to pass. He considered that legislation "un-American."

As the Republican he was, Congressman Clancy defended Jewish, Italian, and Polish immigrants stating that they were Americans too. He attacked this bill, saying that it was discriminatory and racist.
