"Dual citizenship has always been an impressive status symbol, but a new bill aims to change that, hoping to eliminate the possibility of holding passports from more than one country. The Exclusive Citizenship Act of 2025, introduced by Sen. Bernie Moreno (R-Ohio) on Dec. 1, seeks to establish “citizens of the United States... owe sole and exclusive allegiance to the United States.” If passed, the bill would force U.S. citizens with dual foreign citizenship to choose between the two. Under the bill, U.S. citizens who also possess a foreign citizenship would be required to submit a written renunciation of one of those nationalities within one year. U.S. citizens who acquire another citizenship in the future would also "be deemed to have relinquished United States citizenship." The bill is currently in the early stages of the legislative process and has been moved to the Senate Judiciary Committee, according to Congress. GovTrack.us, which tracks the status of congressional bills, estimated the citizenship bill has a 7 percent chance of getting past committee and a 3 percent chance of being enacted."
