The U.S. Department of Justice is moving to strip naturalized Americans of their citizenship as part of President Donald Trump's crackdown on immigration, according to an internal memo.
DOJ leadership directed its civil attorneys to prioritize denaturalization in cases involving national security violations, fraud against the government, and a range of other crimes, according to Noticias Telemundo. The memo, signed by Assistant Attorney General Brett A. Shumate, identifies denaturalization as one of the Civil Division's top five enforcement priorities.
