The Trump administration announced Monday that it is seeking to revoke the citizenship of 17 U.S. citizens accused of immigration fraud and other offenses.
The administration said it would strip citizenship from people convicted of crimes including healthcare fraud, wire fraud, and other unlawful conduct. Some of the individuals were convicted of crimes or committed fraud during the naturalization process.
This action marks the latest move in the administration's aggressive denaturalization efforts. The move is part of an unprecedented push to exercise the government's denaturalization power and deport immigrants.
