The Hart-Cellar Act, or "Immigration and Naturalization Act of 1965." In short, it drastically reduced immigration from Christian Europe and opened up immigration from non-Christian impoverished nations. Kennedy didn't write the bill. He promoted it. It wouldn't have passed without him.
In typical Democrat fashion they had to lie to America to get it passed by promising that it wouldn't alter the ethnic or cultural makeup of the country. It didn't, at first. These things take time and 50 years later America is a far different nation that it was in 1965. This was Ted Kennedy's enduring legacy.
