The power of Congress to establish naturalization laws is found in Article I, Section 8 of the United States Constitution. This section grants Congress the authority "to establish a uniform Rule of Naturalization." This power allows Congress to create laws governing the process by which non-citizens can become U.S. citizens. Through this authority, Congress has enacted various immigration and naturalization laws over the years.

Naturalization is primarily covered in Article I, Section 8 of the United States Constitution, which grants Congress the power to establish a uniform rule of naturalization. This section outlines the authority of the federal government to regulate the process by which non-citizens can become U.S. citizens. Additionally, specific laws and procedures for naturalization are detailed in the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA).
Immigration and Naturalization Service
Article I, Section 8, Clause 18 of the US Constitution is often called the "Elastic Clause". It allows Congress to make laws that are considered "reasonable and necessary".
Nationality is typically conferred based on factors such as birth within a country's territory, descent from a citizen, or through a legal process of naturalization. Each country has its own laws and regulations that determine how nationality is acquired.
One of the laws that George Washington enacted is the Judiciary act of 1789. Another of the laws that George Washington enacted is the Naturalization Act of 1790.
Naturalization is regulated by the Executive Branch, through the Department of Homeland Security; the DHS naturalization agency is the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), not to be confused with the Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) which is a paramilitary police agency. USCIS used to be the Immigration and Naturalization Service agency which was part of the Department of Justice, prior to the terrorism of September 11, 2001.
