This bill would prohibit anyone who holds citizenship in a foreign country from being elected to Congress, regardless of whether they are also a U.S. citizen or national. The legislation directly affects any current or prospective members of the House of Representatives and Senate who maintain dual citizenship with another nation. The bill contains no specific funding requirements or implementation timeline. In effect, it would create an absolute bar to congressional service for dual citizens, going beyond the Constitution's existing eligibility requirements for Congress. The measure was introduced in October 2025 and referred to the House Administration Committee.
