What Is Dual Citizenship And Why Does Massie Want To End It?

Representative Thomas Massie proposed legislation that would require candidates to “disclose both their possession of dual citizenship and also the foreign country in which their dual citizenship is held. The disclosure of dual citizenship status would appear publicly in the statement of candidacy filed when political candidates seek election to federal office.” This bill amends the Federal Election Campaign Act. Although the bill only requires disclosure, Massie believes the law should go further - and require candidates to renounce their dual citizenship.
