The Barriers to American Citizenship

Efforts to limit access to American citizenship impact who can fully engage in the political process. These actions influence who participates in voting, serving on juries, organizing without fear, and having their voices heard within the community. Citizenship grants more than just a status; it provides a platform to influence the future of the community one belongs to.

Citizenship in the United States encompasses more than bureaucratic formalities. It represents power. This power includes the ability to vote, participate on juries, and speak freely with the confidence of belonging. Such power shapes the community and its future.
