The decision upholds previous lower court findings regarding the lack of liability for individual state officials.
The Trump administration has proposed increasing application fees for U.S. citizenship, raising costs from $760 to $1,330 for paper applications and from $710 to $1,280 for online submissions. The plan eliminates fee waivers and reductions for low-income applicants while maintaining exemptions for service members. Public comments on the proposal will be accepted for 60 days.
