Happy Memorial Day!

USCIS reminds us of the roots of Memorial Day, which we have been celebrating this three day weekend (with the Indy 500 and more).  “Memorial Day gives Americans the opportunity to remember and honor the men and women who died in service to the United States. This Memorial Day, USCIS pays tribute to the military personnel, both native- and foreign-born, who have given their lives for this country. “

Prospective citizens may be asked to “Name two national U.S. holidays.” during the civics test. It is also one of the holidays that applicants may be asked to read or write as part of the English Test.

For Memorial Day, USCIS highlights some of the resources USCIS offers for learners and teachers that are related to this important day.  lick the link above for a list of resources.
