The Biden Legacy: Record 3.5 Million Immigrants Awarded U.S. Citizenship

President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have set new records on illegal immigration and legal immigration in fewer than four years.

Analysis from the Migration Policy Institute reveals that from Fiscal Year 2021 through Fiscal Year 2024, the Biden administration awarded naturalized American citizenship to almost 3.5 million legal immigrants.

This is “by far the most of any single presidential term,” MPI reports.

For perspective, the number of legal immigrants who secured naturalized American citizenship under Biden eclipses those who got citizenship under former Presidents Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, and George H.W. Bush, combined.
