Riayan Tejeda Memorial Act of 2005

This bill would streamline the process for noncitizen service members and their families to obtain U.S. citizenship if they served in a combat zone during Operation Iraqi Freedom. It waives standard residency requirements and fees for these service members and ensures that the spouses, children, and parents of those killed in action can still apply for legal permanent residency or citizenship. By removing these administrative hurdles, the legislation aims to provide a faster, more accessible path to citizenship for those who served in the military and their immediate relatives.
