It is often said that the united states is a nation of immigrants. does this statement remain true today even though the country has numerous laws in place that limit immigration explain your reasoning

It remains true today.

Explanation:

Everyone in the United States, with the exception of Native Americans, are immigrants or the descendants of immigrants.

Despite recent restrictions, for most of its existence the United States had very porous and open borders. The nation was populated by immigrants from Europe, Asia, South and Central America, Australia, Africa--all the other continents of the world.

And even though several generations have passed since the first immigrants came to America some 400 years ago, many of the people living here today are first, second, or third generation residents--not really enough time for everyone to have lost the roots of whatever culture they came from.

We don't know what may happen in the future, but for now the United States is a multi-cultural, kaleidoscopic society made up of many different nationalities and peoples, a large number of whom came from somewhere else.

there was a king, priests, and peasants.
