One of the most important things Andras did was help the "Immigration Act, 1976" become a law. This was when he was the Minister of Manpower and Immigration. The law replaced the "Immigration Act of 1952". The law made sure that there was a minimum amount of immigrants Canada let in, and that immigrants would be let in without discriminating on their ethnicity, gender, or country they came from. Andras also tried to work with Jean Chrétien to help with making public policy of the First Nations people.
