Bill Summary

A bill to establish that citizens of the United States shall owe sole and exclusive allegiance to the United States, and for other purposes.

AI Summary

This bill, known as the "Exclusive Citizenship Act of 2025," aims to prohibit dual or multiple citizenship for United States citizens, requiring individuals to maintain sole allegiance to the United States. The bill defines foreign citizenship as any status conferring nationality or allegiance to another country and mandates that within one year of enactment, citizens with dual citizenship must either formally renounce their foreign citizenship to the Secretary of State or renounce their U.S. citizenship to the Secretary of Homeland Security. If individuals fail to comply within the specified timeframe, they will be automatically deemed to have relinquished their U.S. citizenship. The bill is predicated on the congressional finding that divided loyalties and potential conflicts of interest arise from maintaining citizenship in multiple countries, and it seeks to preserve the integrity of national citizenship by ensuring exclusive allegiance to the United States. The Secretary of State and Secretary of Homeland Security are tasked with creating regulations, tracking compliance, and ensuring that individuals who lose their citizenship are appropriately recorded in federal systems and treated as foreign nationals under immigration laws.
