Senate measures end origins quota and set hemisphere caps
Senate approved a bill scrapping the national origins quota and replacing it with a first come, first served system. A Western Hemisphere ceiling is set at 120,000 with Canada and Mexico included, while 170,000 place outsiders outside the hemisphere with a 20,000 per country cap. Spouses and children of U.S. citizens are exempt. Kennedy said compromises could raise hemisphere limits if vital to national interest. The measure would increase annual immigrant admissions by about 60,000 to roughly 355,000.
