WashPost: Many immigrants in the U.S. stop midway along the path of
citizenship

As a follow-up to last week's discussion of English language requirement
and path
to US citizenship I thought members of this list would be interested.  In
particular it
shows that some immigrant groups are more diligent in their pursuit of
English proficiency
than some others.

 For 13 years, Rafael Cohen, an immigrant from Mexico, was eligible to
become a citizen of the United States. But something held him back.
