Relaxed immigration to Chinese immigrants required ally status and decades more

Evidence

It took over sixty years for the Chinese Exclusion Act to finally be repealed (by the Magnuson Act of 1943). During World War II, China became a military ally. Nevertheless, at first the 1943 Magnuson Act still allowed only 105 Chinese immigrants every year into America, reflecting persisting anti-Chinese racism in the United States. It was not until the Immigration Act of 1965—which eliminated previous national-origins policy—that truly free Chinese immigration to the United States was allowed to begin. — Arsalan Iftikhar, Fear of a Muslim Planet_ Global…, 750
