A Republican senator proposed a bill Monday that would require Americans who hold dual citizenship to renounce their foreign citizenship, legislation that could affect first lady Melania Trump and her son, Barron.

“One of the greatest honors of my life was when I became an American citizen at 18, the first opportunity I could do so,” Colombian-born Sen. Bernie Moreno (R-Ohio) said in a press release. “It was an honor to pledge an Oath of Allegiance to the United States of America and ONLY to the United States of America! Being an American citizen is an honor and a privilege—and if you want to be an American, it’s all or nothing. It’s time to end dual citizenship for good.”

Moreno introduced the Exclusive Citizenship Act of 2025, which he said in a statement would “establish that citizens of the United States must have sole and exclusive allegiance to the United States.” He claimed current U.S laws regarding dual citizenship “create conflicts of interest.”

If passed, the bill would give Americans with dual citizenship a year to either submit a renunciation of their foreign citizenship to the State Department or submit a renunciation of their U.S citizenship to Homeland Security. Moreno’s bill would receive pushback. Under the 14th Amendment, which held in a 1967 case, “a U.S. citizen cannot lose his or her citizenship unless he or she willingly surrenders it.” HuffPost has reached out to the White House and Moreno for comment.

Due to Israel's "Law of Return", you have upwards of 200,000 American Jews who have dual citizenship with Israel, and estimates of upwards of a million dual U.S./Canadian citizens.

Because of his snotty arrogance, Carnival Cruz was forced to renounce his Canadian citizenship (since he was born there, his "illegal" father ended up getting Canadian citizenship, and only later got naturalized as a U.S. citizen, and his mother was a U.S. citizen), and eventually got twisted into pretzels with 45 in the "birther" nonsense - that actually applied to BOTH of them.

1. If this passes, we will lose a lot of people

[Wiz Imp]

4. Blatantly unconstitutional. Zero chance of ever passing.

[Fiendish Thingy]

2. This will go nowhere

It will never become law.

3. Not at this point

But it will be a framework for the future since 45 already wants the 14th Amendment declared "unconstitutional" and we're just waiting on the Fascist 6 to decide whether to go along with that.

5. I have dual citizenship

Honestly, if this passes I'd think very much about leaving. Ending dual citizenship is a means of trapping people here. It's a paperwork Iron Curtain, an administrative Berlin Wall.

Luckily, this would be so opposed by one of the strongest lobbies in DC that it essentially has no hope of passing.

6. There would be a clause that would give the king exclusive rights to override it case-by-case.

Flattery, being a member of "the family," or sufficient cash would earn you the king's blessing.
