    Montgomery County will host a free legal clinic Saturday for residents who are in the country lawfully and who may be eligible to apply for U.S. citizenship.

    At a news conference Monday morning, Montgomery County Council President Natali Fani-González, a naturalized citizen herself, described her experience.

    “I was very nervous throughout the whole process,” Fani-González said. “Not just during the time of presenting the application, but through the interview, doing the test,” she said.

    Saturday’s clinic has already been booked up, but officials at Monday’s news conference announcing the clinic made clear it’s not a one-time event.
