“They don’t appear to really be pursuing it.”

Don’t bet on this. An Act of Congress was passed authorizing the President to grant honorary citizenship by proclamation. What rights and privileges honorary citizenship bestows, if any, is unclear. According to State Department documents, it does not grant eligibility for United States passports. However, only eight people have ever been given this honor. Sir Winston Churchill, Lafayette, and Mother Teresa are examples. The action does not offer the nominee any special privileges, like voting, but the liberals have tried to do things around the law before.

My bad. I was unclear. I meant that the Republicans aren’t really going after Harria on this to make her own an unpopular position. Trump (probably) can’t do it all by himself.
