re: Its time, end dual citizenship.

Do you feel the same about your US citizenship?

Like I said, I spent 15 years in the United States Navy. I've sworn allegiance to this country many, many times. As an American citizen, I've lived all but the first five years of my life in the United States.

There would be pushback to this. Many Americans hold dual citizenship, including Olympic athletes like Mondo Duplantis.

---

Yeah. Let's throw all logic out of the window because if a pole vaulter lol

So you are so insistent on keeping citizenship to a country you have zero loyalty to, whos citizenship means nothing to you other than "its mine".

That you would block something that would seriously clean up the number of anchor babies in America?
That would reduce the amount of foreign loyalty of our citizens?
That would keep many H1Bs off our social security and Medicaid entitlements.

It just seems like a petty reason to keep them as you keep saying those countries mean nothing to you.

It is mine by birthright. It's not yours to take. My family has deep roots in New York and Canada that predate the existence of both countries.

I made no comments on the bill, I just said I had dual citizenship. End birthright citizenship as it is used for anchor baby purposes. Grandfather in those who already possess dual citizenship.

But thats what drives anchor babies.

This solves so many problems.

Yeah let's get rid of those anchor babies! They suck! They cause our problems blah blah blah scapegoat bullshite.

Oops.




That's right, both mothers were immigrants, not citizens, when their children were born.

But but but that's different because reasons.

No its yours to choose.
Does Canada matter to you?

---

No choice is required, I have citizenship in two countries. And, yeah, I do like Canada. It's a cool country and poutine is delicious. You may not like that I have dual citizenship for whatever bizarre reason, but your opinion doesn't really mean frickall, does it?

Somalia recognizes Ilhan Omar as a Somali citizen.

She needs to renounce any claim to any Somali citizenship Especially in her position as a congressman.


In your case I agree that you are much less risky. But in order to be An equitable rule we cannot have exceptions.

And none of that overseas citizenship of India BS.

Do you even know what Overseas Citizens of India (OCI) is? What is your exact problem with OCI? OCI holders can't get Indian passport. They can't vote in India. It is no different than having a permanent travel visa. So, what is your exact concern?
