Nearly 300 new Americans came together in a naturalization ceremony on the Fourth of July at the Seattle Center.
Immigrants from 74 countries in total (with many from Canada, the Philippines and India) were present.
Gov. Jay Inslee, U.S. Sen. Maria Cantwell, King County Executive Dow Constantine, and Chief U.S. District Judge Ricardo Martinez were part of the ceremony.
