Senate Bill Proposes Stripping Citizenship from Naturalized Citizens Convicted of Fraud or Terrorism
Stalled
No legislative action in over 90 days.
This bill directly targets naturalized citizens by creating new grounds to strip their citizenship. If a naturalized citizen is convicted of defrauding a government program of $10,000+, commits an aggravated felony or espionage offense, or associates with a designated foreign terrorist organization within 10 years of naturalization, the government can use that as automatic evidence that the person never had the good moral character required to become a citizen. Their citizenship would be revoked retroactively — as if they were never a citizen — and they'd face expedited deportation.
