Judge Elizabeth K. Dillon at Naturalization Ceremony at Monticello:
Please know, you are all welcome. Some of you may have come the the United States for a better life, some for a job, some for family, some for education, some for love and some for freedom. Some of you may have lived here for a lifetime and others may have arrived more recently. Some may have come from free countries where you transition was one of choice and others may have risked your lives to flee a country where there is no freedom and no choice. Please know, you are all welcome.
