I yield myself such time as I may consume. Mr. Speaker. H.R. 735 provides for administrative naturalization. The bill was unanimously reported from the Judiciary Committee on June 30. 1987. This is legislation identical to that which passed the House last Congress. Because of time constraints. the other body did not have occasion to act. H.R. 735 vests authority for naturalization with the Attorney General. and combines a twostep process. involving the executive branch and the judiciary. into one process. Currently. the Immigration and Naturalization Service processes all applications for naturalization. This involves an investigation of the applicant and test on English language and U.S. History and Government.
