Senior Citizenship Act of 2003
Summary
The Senior Citizenship Act of 2003 (H.R. 3123) proposed changes to the naturalization process to make it easier for older legal permanent residents to become U.S. citizens. The bill sought to exempt certain seniors from the standard English language and U.S. history and government testing requirements based on their age and how long they had lived in the country. For other eligible seniors, the legislation would have allowed them to take the required civics examination in their native language rather than in English.
