Merickston Nicholson. a native of Trinidad. They are proud of Alexandrias fine record and would like to see her represent this country in the Olympics at Munich this October. The only factor which prohibits Alexandria from becoming naturalized before the preliminary competition in June is the fact that her family did not obtain official permanent residence status until 1971. Alexandria. who has been In this country from the age of 3 months. is an American by upbringing and will certainly be eligible for naturalization in the future. I have introduced this bill on her behalf. however. to accelerate this process and allow her to obtain citizenship in time to participate on behalf of the United States in 1972. I am hopeful that with the cooperation of the Immigration and Naturalization Service and the Senate Committee on the Judiciary. we will be able to give Alexandria the opportunity. for which she has worked hard. to enhance our countrys Olympic record.
