True immigration grew rapidly

The correct answer is: True. After the Immigration Act of 1965 was passed, immigration grew rapidly from non-European countries.

Explanation:

The Immigration and Naturalization Act of 1965, also called the Hart-Celler Act, promoted a new and more open immigration policy with the purpose of reuniting immigrant families (men would usually enter the country first) and attracting new skilled workers too. This Act changed the composition of the American society since immigrants came largely from Asia, Africa and Latin America (non-European countries).
