The land of the free gained almost 200 new members this week in Colorado, and to say they’re excited to become new US citizens is an understatement. “It’s been a lifelong dream to become a US citizen, and it just happened,” said Katrin Redford, a new US citizen originally from Germany. “I want to get a better life here,” said Samuel Rodriguez, who came to the US from MexicoShang Wu came to the US more than 40 years ago and is finally getting his citizenship. “It feels great. It’s honored and it’s the right thing to do for me,” he said. Their excitement is a reward after what can be a long, grueling process. Some people think it takes a little too long. “We’re seeing processing times that are published by US CIS online for the Denver field office in terms of 10 and half to 22 and a half months,” said Jennifer Kain-Rios. Kain-Rios is an immigration attorney. She says processing delays are a problem and it’s been getting worse. “Over the course of the past couple years, we have definitely seen naturalization applications taking much longer than they had in the past,” said Kain-Rios. The US Commission on Civil Rights recently discovered the same thing. “The report is intended to just bring attention to this issue. Our hope is that the US Commission on Civil Rights will be able share it with Congress and other stake holders to ensure that the issue can be addressed adequately,” said Alvina Earnhart US Commission on Civil Rights, Colorado Advisory Committee. Earnhart sits on the Commission’s Colorado Advisory Committee. She says the application processing delays are more than just an inconvenience. They’re affecting people’s rights. “When we held the hearing in February, one of the panelists pointed out if an individual did not submit an application by March of this year, that there was no chance that they would be able to participate in 2020 election,” said Earnhart. As for why there’s a backlog, there’s no simple answer. The commission’s report found a handful of possible reasons that include changing policies and inadequate resources. The USCIS says the problem is simply an increase in applications. “Processing times impact people in very real ways. I think the most significant concern for many people is a desire to be able to vote,” said Kain-Rios. That desire is so strong, people were registering to vote the second the citizenship ceremony was over. “It is very important to participate, in every country you know, not just here,” said Rodriguez. US Citizen and Immigration Services, which handles citizenship applications, says they’ve brought those long wait times down. “Well the average after this month, will be just under seven months and we do have some number of outlier applications that take longer, but one the average, we’re about seven months,” said Kristie Goldinger, the Colorado District Director with US Citizenship and Immigration Services. We confirmed the new processing times on USCIS's website. But, seven and a half months is still longer than the six months it’s supposed to take. And the high end of the range is still more than a year. And that extra time puts extra stress on the people going through the process. 3207

A long overdue initiative. The City of Tulsa has created a committee to oversee the search for mass graves of those killed in the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre.It's giving Tulsa new hope for healing.“If we can identify a place where there are bodies, we have a responsibility to look into that,” mayor G.T. Bynum said. Bynum announced the plan last fall. A search of three possible mass grave sites were identified in a 2001 state report:Oaklawn Cemetery, Newblock Park and Rolling Oaks Memorial Gardens, formerly Booker T. Washington Cemetery.The city's now assembled a 17-person committee to oversee the search. Former state senator Maxine Horner will lead.Former state Sen. Maxine Horner; Thomas Boxley; Mayor G.T. Bynum; Melvin Cooper; Chief Egunwale; Dr. John Franklin;Sherry Gamble-Smith; state Rep. Regina Goodwin; City Councilor Vanessa Hall-Harper;Zachary Kimbrough; Sherry Laskey; state Sen. Kevin Matthews; Michael Reed; Greg Robinson; former state Rep. Don Ross; Robert Turner; and Kristi WilliamsThe search will begin with the use of ground-penetrating radar.If anything's found, the city and the oversight committee will decide whether to excavate.If human remains are uncovered, the state medical examiner would determine cause of death.The city and the oversight committee would then look at 'next steps' in terms of DNA testing and honoring the victims.That's important to the families of victims and survivor -- people like Rashad Woodrow, whose grandmother Hazel Jones passed away last year.“The first step of true healing.. with what went on back in 1921,” he said. “And I feel like those victims, they deserve a proper burial.”The first meeting of the public oversight committee is May 23 at 5:30 p.m. and will be held at the 36th Street Event Center. Another interesting note about the investigation, there was a Spanish influenza outbreak in Tulsa in 1919, just two years before the race massacre. If any remains are found, the city says the medical examiner will have to determine whether those people died from the outbreak or in the massacre. 2076
