A Republican senator's bill to ban dual citizenship would place First Lady Melania Trump, tech billionaire Elon Musk, and an estimated five million Americans in an impossible dilemma: choose one country or automatically lose US citizenship.
The Exclusive Citizenship Act of 2025, introduced by Senator Bernie Moreno on 1 December, explicitly prohibits 'dual or multiple citizenship'. If the bill were to become law, citizens would have a strict 12-month window to resolve their status.
