The Immigration Restriction League wanted Europeans to pass a literacy test - A.

The reason for this was the fact that the Immigration Restriction League was an anti-immigration movement in the United States who advocated against immigration and they wanted to have minimal filters which would persuade against people who couldn't read to emigrate to the US.
