Rep. James Clyburn (D-S.C.) slammed Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) and former President Trump’s joint press conference, saying it was full of “outright lies.” Clyburn was asked how he feels Fri…

People who legally enter the US as registered immigrants (not legal migrants seeking asylum or illegal immigrants), with diligence, study, and work, can become US citizens in as little as 18-24 months. They couldn’t vote in November if they were on the fastest track to citizenship.
You have to add a source because there is nearly a 0% chance of that being true. Our immigration process is infamous for being excruciatingly long and drawn out. You might be able to get residency if you’re lucky, but definitely not citizenship
Agreed. My comment was to point out that with a “best possible” naturalization process, they’d still be ineligible to vote in November. I read 18-24 months on this site. I assume it’s very optimistic.
This isn’t my experience, at least not with highly qualified H1B or other technical workers. I know some that have been waiting 5-10+ years. They work diligently and study hard, but there’s more to the process.
I’ve read that it can be more difficult to naturalize work Visas than visitor Visas from a port of entry. It’s awful to hear it’s been that long waiting for a reply. We need a more clear path to naturalization. Our birth rate is in decline, and that’s a much better solution than forcing people to have unwanted children.
My previous comment was more a point that even if an immigrant met every requirement, there’s still no way they’d be eligible to vote this November.

Yeah it’s closer to 18-24 years than 18-24 months.
Enter legally how?
