An Act to Permit Persons Professing the Jewish Religion to be Naturalized by Parliament

This pamphlet reprints the text of the Jewish Naturalization Act of 1753, an Act of the Parliament of Great Britain. The act, which received royal assent on July 7, 1753, aimed to allow Jews to become naturalized British subjects through application to Parliament. The act was repealed later in the same year due to significant public opposition. The pamphlet includes details about the historical context of the Act, including the debate surrounding its passage and its eventual repeal.
