Thus, after massive rhetoric and propaganda was dumped on the politicians, a combined House and Senate bill, the Johnson-Reed Act, passed on May 15, 1924, by a vote of 308 to 69 in the former and 69 to 9 in the latter. The bill was approved as the Johnson-Lodge Act and was signed into law by President Calvin Coolidge on June 30, 1924. This law remained the major immigration policy in the United States until the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952.
