In what year was The Refugee Act enacted?

• A. 1980
• B. 1975
• C. 1990
• D. 1985

Answer: (A)

The year shows when the United States created its modern refugee policy. The Refugee Act was signed into law in 1980, establishing the current framework for admitting and resettling refugees, defining who counts as a refugee, and setting up the annual admissions process. That’s why 1980 is the correct choice. The other years don’t match the actual enactment date.
