Municipal Judge In Texas On Unpaid Leave Pending U.S. Citizenship
2017-05-20
From the article:

"The job posting specified only the ability to work in the U.S.," Nathan Burkett wrote. "She has never made a representation that she is a citizen."

Burkett is on unpaid leave for 90 days to give her time to obtain citizenship, said Mayor pro-tem Lucy Rubio, after a closed-door session of the City Council on Tuesday.


Yep, this is America now.

This is Texas, anyway. I am under the impression that in most states one must be a citizen to get a licence to practice law, but I don't actually know. More on this story from yesterday.
