Overview

• Rep. Cory Mills (R-Fla.) introduced the 'No Citizenship for Alien Invaders Act,' which seeks to permanently deny naturalization eligibility to individuals who enter the U.S. unlawfully.
• The bill is co-sponsored by Republican Representatives Josh Brecheen, Anna Paulina Luna, and Andy Harris, aligning with broader GOP efforts to strengthen border security under the Trump administration.
• Proponents argue the legislation is necessary to deter illegal immigration and maintain the rule of law, citing a sharp decline in illegal border crossings under current policies.
• GOP leaders aim to pass the bill by Memorial Day, but it is expected to face significant opposition, including a likely Democratic filibuster in the Senate.
• The bill builds on recent Republican-led efforts, including a January 2025 proposal to end birthright citizenship and an executive order targeting the same issue.
