The Biden administration wants to reach out to as many as 9 million immigrants in an effort get them to apply for U.S. citizens, according to CNN.

The news network said the move was sparked by one of President Joe Biden’s executive orders that had federal agencies developing “welcoming strategies that promote integration, inclusion, and citizenship.”

“The idea is to find a whole-of-government way to reach out to people who are able to naturalize,” a Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) official said, adding that there are 9 million people in the U.S. who are lawful permanent residents who may be eligible to apply for citizenship.
