Require elected officials to hold only US citizenship
The Issue
The integrity of our political system and the loyalty of those we elect to represent us is a matter of national security and democratic integrity. We call upon lawmakers to legislate a critical requirement: all elected officials must either be born in the United States or be naturalized citizens holding no dual citizenships with any other country.
In a world increasingly characterized by complex international relationships, the potential conflicts of interest arising from dual citizenships pose a significant threat to national interests. Elected officials wield substantial power and influence, impacting both domestic policy and international relations. To ensure they serve the United States with undivided loyalty, they should be obligated to renounce any citizenship other than American.
Dual citizenship can create divided allegiances or the perception thereof. In an age where transparency and accountability are demanded by the electorate, the assurance that our leaders prioritize American interests must be strengthened. Other nations, like Norway and India, already have restrictions on dual citizenship for positions of political power.
The necessity of this legislation is illustrated by concerns about political figures who retain strong ties with countries that may have interests contrary to those of the United States. By mandating a singular national allegiance, we foster assurance in our government’s actions, clarity in its intents, and unity in its international stance.
Join us in advocating for this requirement. It represents not just a legal adjustment, but a commitment to uphold the values and interests of our nation over and above any other allegiance. Sign this petition to urge Congress to draft and pass legislation ensuring this critical safeguard is established.
