Trump Administration Moves to Vastly Expand Denaturalization Efforts

The Trump administration aims to identify 100 to 200 possible denaturalization cases monthly nationwide to enforce citizenship integrity and curb immigration.

  • On February 12, The New York Times reported the Trump administration aims to supply the Office of Immigration Litigation with 100 to 200 possible denaturalization cases monthly, while USCIS reallocates staff to identify candidates.
  • The initiative stems from DHS's push to drastically curtail immigration and deliver on President Donald Trump's policy agenda, reflecting his long focus on citizenship and his Truth Social message last year.
  • The Justice Department has instructed attorneys to focus on denaturalization, aiming to supply 100 to 200 cases monthly, as USCIS reallocates staff nationwide.
  • Affected naturalized U.S. citizens face financial and emotional costs from investigations and denaturalization processes, with roughly 800,000 naturalized annually and legal experts warning of widespread fear.
  • Legal experts caution that denaturalization faces high legal hurdles and courts scrutinize political motives, while historically it averaged 11 cases yearly and MAGA Republicans target progressives like Rep. Ilhan Omar and Zohran Mamdani.
