The Trump administration is increasing efforts to deport immigrants while targeting naturalized citizens suspected of having unlawfully obtained their citizenship. A recent DOJ memo directs a crackdown on individuals who may have committed crimes, such as terrorism, after naturalization. The plan encompasses those involved in felonies undisclosed during the application process, focusing on risks to national security. The memo underscores that these targeting categories do not limit civil division pursuits. Additionally, naturalized citizens convicted of defrauding government programs like Medicare or COVID-19 loans may also face revocation efforts.
In an unprecedented legal approach, the DOJ's Civil Division will target naturalized citizens involved in crime or suspected of unlawfully obtaining citizenship, addressing national security factors.
Trump's administration will focus on criminals among the naturalized citizens, including those with ties to terrorism, international drug trafficking, and felonies not disclosed during naturalization.
The Justice Department plans to leverage its resources to scrutinize naturalized citizens, potentially leading to an expansive interpretation of laws to revoke their citizenship over various crimes.
Targeted individuals include those convicted of defrauding government programs like Medicare or COVID-19 loan schemes, reflecting a broader agenda in the crackdown on immigration.
