The American Sovereignty Act

A Citizens’ Petition to Ban Foreign Military Bases and Land Ownership on U.S. Soil

 

Preamble

We, the citizens of the United States, affirm that our homeland is not for sale, rent, or foreign occupation. The Constitution was written to preserve American independence — political, military, and territorial.

Yet through quiet deals and legal loopholes, foreign nations and corporations have begun acquiring American land, natural resources, and influence — while some have even negotiated for military presence on U.S. soil.

This is not partnership. It is infiltration through policy, profit, and politics. Allowing foreign powers to purchase American land or establish defense infrastructure within our borders compromises our sovereignty, food security, and national safety.

We therefore call for immediate legislative action to defend what generations of Americans fought to protect: our independence, our territory, and our right to self-governance.

 

Definition & Scope

For the purpose of this petition, “foreign” shall include any individual, corporation, trust, or entity whose majority ownership or controlling interest is held by non-U.S. citizens, foreign governments, or foreign sovereign wealth funds — directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, shell companies, or proxies.

 

Our Demands

1. Ban on Foreign Military Presence

 No foreign government shall build, lease, or operate a military base, airfield, training site, or command post on U.S. soil under any circumstances.

 Exception: Temporary, cooperative training exercises may occur only under full U.S. command and with complete public disclosure.

2. Ban on Foreign Land Ownership

 Prohibit all foreign governments, sovereign wealth funds, and non-citizen entities from purchasing, leasing, or controlling land, water rights, or farmland in the United States.

3. Immediate investigation into all existing foreign land holdings.

Mandatory divestment timelines for properties already acquired by foreign states or state-linked companies.

4. Transparency in Foreign Investment

 Establish a public registry of all land, infrastructure, and corporate assets owned wholly or partially by foreign nationals or governments.

5. Congressional Oversight

 Require full congressional review and approval for any future defense or land agreements involving foreign nations, including review of existing memoranda, leases, and cooperative military arrangements.

6. State-Level Coordination

 Mandate that state governments, land commissions, and local registries coordinate with federal agencies to prevent unauthorized foreign acquisitions or leases.

7. Sovereignty Protection Clause

 Any treaty, memorandum, or financial arrangement that grants a foreign nation command authority, land ownership, or long-term control over U.S. property shall be deemed unconstitutional and void.

Violations shall result in immediate federal seizure of the property or installation, permanent disqualification of the offending party from future ownership or contracting, and full public disclosure of findings.

 

Public Right to Know

All data concerning foreign land purchases, defense agreements, and related financial arrangements shall be accessible to the public under the Freedom of Information Act — with no exemptions for corporate or diplomatic secrecy.

A biennial audit shall be conducted and published, detailing the total acreage, ownership structures, and national affiliations of all foreign-linked landholdings in the United States.

 

Purpose

To ensure that America remains self-governed, self-defended, and self-owned. Our land, our food, and our future must remain in American hands — not in the hands of foreign governments, corporations, or their proxies.

 

Closing Pledge

We, the undersigned, believe that America’s sovereignty is sacred.

We call upon every elected official — regardless of party — to stand with the citizens they serve and protect the land we call home.

This is not about Left or Right — it’s about the land beneath our feet.
