Alongside 1364 other people from 99 different countries I became a US citizen today. It was genuinely heartwarming (particularly in contrast to the depressing news cycle) to see so many people from all over the world celebrate the milestone with their friends and family.

@chrispederick Congratulations and welcome to the new status! I remember when my wife naturalized - it was quite emotional.

@chrispederick Congratulations, fellow citizen!

(Given our antiquated elections system where one must actively register in order to be able to vote, I will of course urge you to register ;-) Especially since you naturalized on National Register to Vote day!)

@smokey Thank you and yes, they were registering people to vote immediately after the ceremony which was very cool. I didn't queue up to do it there and then, but plan to register online as soon as possible.
