The Expatriate Terrorists Act of 2026 amends immigration law to allow the government to revoke U.S. citizenship and deport individuals involved in terrorism-related activities. The bill applies to U.S. citizens and naturalized citizens who commit, support, or materially assist terrorist organizations designated by the federal government, or who serve in the military of foreign terrorist organizations. Key provisions include making denaturalization proceedings mandatory for convicted terrorists, establishing expedited removal proceedings with court docketing priority, and expanding grounds for citizenship revocation to include membership in designated foreign terrorist organizations and provision of material support to such groups. The bill creates a legal presumption that individuals convicted of federal terrorism offenses are deportable, though this presumption can be challenged with contrary evidence. No specific funding or timeline is provided in the legislation.
