On the recordSeptember 15, 2010
Reclaiming my time, the gentleman brings up an interesting point that we have discussed at other times on this floor. I must say that I neglected to mention that the bill also includes Delegates and the Resident Commissioner to be able to administer the oath of office. So, interestingly enough, in the territories, new Americans will become citizens on that day with the participation of the Resident Commissioner or the Delegates. So, again, thank you. And all this is an extension of the celebration of, as you have said, Mr. Smith, probably the greatest honor this country gives anyone, which is to become an American citizen. Thank you so much.
