Congratulations, Newly Sworn US Citizens!

It is always a joyous occasion to welcome new citizens to our country. I congratulate the 17 newly sworn-in Americans and celebrate their dedication, perseverance, and passion in reaching this incredible milestone. Their journeys—from Thailand, Taiwan, the Philippines, and Palau—now become part of the great story of America. Taking the oath of citizenship is the final step in a long process, but behind it are years of hard work, sacrifice, and commitment to building a better future for themselves and their families. A truly commendable achievement—congratulations and welcome!
