    People from dozens of countries made the Oath of Allegiance to the United States on Independence Day.

    Two ceremonies were held in the Valley, one in Phoenix and the second in Mesa.

    “I couldn’t be more grateful to be in this country of freedom,” Hemmily Castillo, from Venezuela, said. “It couldn’t be better, it’s the best day of the United States, Independence Day now I call it my own Independence Day.”
