Filipinos became U.S. citizens primarily through the Jones Act of 1916, which recognized the Philippines as a territory of the United States and promised eventual independence. This act granted U.S. citizenship to Filipinos born in the Philippines, although it wasn't fully realized until the Tydings-McDuffie Act of 1934, which established a pathway to independence while still allowing for citizenship rights. Additionally, during World War II, many Filipinos served alongside American forces, further solidifying their ties to the U.S. and the push for citizenship.
