Sen. Eric Schmitt Drops the Hammer: Time to Strip Citizenship from Fraudsters, Felons, and TerroristsAmerica's immigration system has been turned into a free-for-all under years of open-border policies, letting in millions who game welfare, join cartels, or worse—plot against us after swearing an oath to our country.Sen. Eric Schmitt (R-Mo.) is fighting back hard with the SCAM Act (Stop Citizenship Abuse and Misrepresentation Act), introduced in January 2026. This common-sense bill expands denaturalization so the government can revoke citizenship and deport naturalized citizens who:- Commit massive welfare fraud against American taxpayers- Join foreign terrorist organizations- Engage in serious felonies or cartel activity- Prove they never had the good moral character required for citizenshipRecent cases make the need crystal clear: naturalized citizens from places like Sierra Leone and Lebanon have carried out violent attacks on American soil, including shootings and vehicle rammings targeting synagogues and universities. These aren't isolated incidents—they're symptoms of a broken system that rewards fraud and endangers citizens.Schmitt's push comes as President Trump's deportation operations ramp up. The SCAM Act gives law enforcement the tools to finish the job: prosecute the scammers, strip their ill-gotten citizenship, and send them packing.Denaturalization isn't new, but it's been far too rare—only a handful of cases in decades. Schmitt's legislation fixes that, protecting the integrity of American citizenship and putting Americans first.Congress needs to act fast. Pass the SCAM Act now. No more abusing our generosity. If you came here to hurt us or rip us off, you don't belong here. Period.
