💨 Abstract

The federal government is looking into revoking the citizenship of naturalized immigrants who commit serious crimes or pose a national security risk. This is part of the Trump administration's hardline immigration agenda. Critics worry about the use of this process for political purposes and the potential fear it may instill among eligible immigrants. Those at risk include people convicted of fraud, violent crimes, and security threats. The Justice Department sees this move as a way to protect national security and address fraud in the naturalization process.
