Washington, DC — Senator Tom Cotton (R-Arkansas) today introduced legislation to keep Arkansas communities safer by providing grounds to revoke citizenship from any naturalized citizen who commits a felony or supports a terrorist group. The Naturalization Accountability Act will ensure that naturalized citizens who break our nation’s laws are subject to denaturalization criminal proceedings.

My first thought was "you said you don't like bibi, therefore you clearly support Hamas, therefore you support terrorist groups, so I'll just go ahead and take your citizenship."

Also, weed is a felony so getting caught smoking on your back porch could kick off the process of stripping citizenship.

I'm sure that would never be abused...
