"After a US Senator sparked uproar by introducing a bill that would eliminate the possibility of dual citizenship for American citizens, we want to hear from US nationals in Europe. Would you give up your US passport to be European? Republican Senator Bernie Moreno of Ohio introduced the bill to the Senate on December 1st that if passed into law would effectively eliminate the possibility of having dual citizenship for Americans."
"Moreno's "Exclusive Citizenship Act of 2025 would establish that US citizens "shall owe sole and exclusive allegiance to the United States," according to a text of the bill. The proposed law would require any Americans who have already gained dual citizenship in a European country to renounce their European passport or else give up their citizenship to the US. Many Americans have dismissed the bill as fanciful, publicity-seeking and against the constitution."
A Republican senator introduced the Exclusive Citizenship Act of 2025 on December 1st to require sole and exclusive allegiance to the United States. The proposal would eliminate dual citizenship for Americans and require those holding European nationality to renounce their foreign passport or forfeit US citizenship. The measure has prompted criticism as impractical, publicity-seeking, and potentially unconstitutional. The proposal could affect many people, including high-profile dual nationals. A survey requests responses from US nationals in Europe about whether they would relinquish a US passport to become solely European and about challenges of renouncing US citizenship.
