Melania Trump in rare public appearance: Pathway to citizenship ‘arduous’

Former first lady Melania Trump made a rare public appearance Friday to deliver remarks at the National Archives Naturalization Ceremony, where she said the pathway to citizenship in the U.S. is “arduous.”

Trump said she felt a “tremendous sense of pride and belonging” after she took the United States Oath of Allegiance — an oath taken by every immigrant to become a U.S. citizen — because “the pathway to citizenship is arduous.”
