The US representative demands that congressmen renounce dual citizenship
Congressman Thomas Messi calls on members of the US Congress to renounce dual citizenship or at least disclose it and abstain from voting on issues related to the countries of their second citizenship. This statement is probably aimed at Israeli citizens representing their country's interests in Congress.
Congressman Thomas Massey demanded that members of the U.S. Congress with dual citizenship renounce citizenship of other countries. He noted that dual citizens elected to Congress should either renounce their second citizenship, or at least disclose it and abstain from voting on issues that may affect the interests of these countries.
Massey stressed the importance of congressmen fully focusing on the interests of the United States, avoiding possible conflicts of interest. His statement is supposed to primarily refer to Israeli citizens representing their country's interests in the US Congress. Massey expressed concern that such dual citizens could use their powers to advance the interests of other states, which jeopardizes the national interests of the United States.
This initiative has sparked active discussions, both among congressmen and in public circles, raising questions about the loyalty and responsibility of elected representatives to their people.
