The answer to this question is somewhat obvious, but I'll give it a try anyway. Jews cause vice, corruption, crime, national security problems, and cultural degradation in the countries that host them. That's why Americans didn't want to take them in. That's also why they started having problems in Germany: the Germans wanted them gone, but nobody wanted to be their next victim.

When, and what, are you talking about?
In 1921, the first quota law was passed. It limited the annual number of immigrants to a total of 357,803, permitting about 200,000 from northwestern Europe (including Germany).
In 1924, a second quota law was passed.
In 1948 The Displaced Persons Act and its update of 1950 permitted until 1952 the immigration of over 400,000 Europeans in fulfillment of past or future immigrant quotas. With this act, Congress permitted, in principle, exceptions for refugees in dire need.

It would've ment a great economic burden. Too many to intergrate into the system. Not enough jobs available, or housing, etc. They'd just recovered from the hungry thirties and getting back on their feet economically. They just couldn't afford it.
