Joint Resolution 
To confer honorary citizenship of the United States on Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu, 
Oct. 1,1996 
also known as Mother Teresa. 
[H J Res 191] 
Whereas the United States has conferred honorary citizenship on 
only three occasions in its more than two hundred years, and 
honorary citizenship is and should remain an extraordinary honor 
not lightly conferred nor frequently grsinted; 
Whereas Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu, better known throughout the 
world as Mother Teresa, has worked tirelessly with orphaned 
and abandoned children, the poor, the sick, and the d3dng; 
Whereas Mother Teresa founded the Missionaries of Charity in 
1950, and has taken in those who have been rejected as "unaccept-
able" and cared for them when no one else would, regardless 
of race, color, creed, or condition; 
Whereas Mother Teresa has deservedly received numerous honors, 
including the 1979 Nobel Peace Prize and the 1985 Presidential 
Medal of Freedom; 
Whereas Mother Teresa has worked in areas all over the world, 
including the United States, to provide comfort to the world's 
neediest; and 
Whereas Mother Teresa through her Missionaries of Charity has 
established within the United States numerous soup kitchens, 
emergency shelters for women, shelters for unwed mothers, shel-
ters for men, after-school and summer camp programs for chil-
dren, homes for the dying, prison ministry, nursing homes, and 
hospital and shut-in ministry: Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives 
of the 
United States of America 
in Congress assembled, 
That Agnes 
Gonxha Bojaxhiu, also known as Mother Teresa, is proclaimed 
to be an honorary citizen of the United States of America.
