I just read the article, the quote makes it sound like Johnson had something to do with the bill but he was not in the congress at the time. The quote should be removed.
606: 602: 588: 192: 173: 63: 495:"however some felt it was mainly in response to the millions of Jews who begun fleeing the terrible persecution they were facing in Western Europe starting in 1890." 708: 276: 673: 163: 127: 713: 703: 252: 698: 668: 132: 723: 374: 554: 380: 243: 220: 103: 58: 443: 516: 115: 728: 718: 480: 111:
