Kennedy seeks gradual end to country quotas in immigration
President Kennedy asked Congress to phase out the 39 year old country by country immigration quotas over five years. He proposes lifting the annual limit from 92 000 to 164 500, using unused quota numbers, and prioritizing skilled applicants and relatives in the United States with earliest applications.
