the hart-celler act created a seven-category preference system that gives priority to relatives of u.s. citizens and legal permanent residents, as well as to professionals and other individuals with specialized skills. the act maintained per-country and total immigration limits, but included a provision exempting immediate relatives of u.s. citizens from numerical restrictions. the act also set a numerical limit on immigration from the western hemisphere for the first time in u.s. history. though proponents of the bill had argued that it would not have a major effect on the total level of immigration or the demographic mix of the united states, the act greatly increased the total number of immigrants coming to the united states, as well as the share of immigrants coming to the united states from asia and africa.
