I am coming before you today to request your consideration and support of S. 1863. a private relief bill for Audun Endestad. Audun has been in the United States for 9 years. Three years ago he married a U.S. citizen and applied for citizenship. He is now completing the 3year residency requirement needed before he can become a naturalized citizen in October. This bill would waive the remaining few months to enable Audun to become a citizen and to participate in the upcoming winter Olympics. He has already proven himself as an Olympic athlete by placing in the Olympic crosscountry ski time trials held earlier this month.
