On July 4th, 2025, USCIS marked Independence Day with special ceremonies across the country to welcome thousands of new U.S. citizens. These events celebrated individuals who followed the legal path to citizenship through the naturalization process and are now officially recognized as US citizens.
A Stronger Focus on Lawful Immigration
USCIS used this moment to highlight a renewed focus on strengthening the nation’s immigration system, ensuring that those who respect and follow the law are welcomed and celebrated.
“Becoming a U.S. citizen by choice is a powerful act of patriotism,” said USCIS spokesman Matthew Tragesser. “We proudly welcome those who choose to follow the legal path, take the Oath of Allegiance, and embrace the responsibilities that come with American citizenship.”
Each year, these ceremonies reflect USCIS’s commitment to a fair and meaningful naturalization process. It supports a shared American identity and respect for the Constitution and the nation’s founding values.
Naturalization, however, is not a simple process. Lawful permanent residents must meet a range of eligibility criteria and go through background checks, interviews, and civics and English tests. Attorneys play a key role in guiding applicants through this journey, starting with Form N-400, the official application for naturalization.
