I was hoping she wasn’t a US Citizen - overlooked before this but no such luck. I never heard of “derivation” but learned something new... Kinda makes one wonder WHY the brother didn’t come over with the parent and go through the same procedure? Ilhan has been a citizen longer than Melania Trump..DRAT!!

Ilhan Omar arrived in the United States in 1995 as a refugee from a Somali refugee camp in Kenya, after her family fled the Somali civil war factually.cofactually.co+1. She has stated in interviews that she became a U.S. citizen through derivation when her father naturalized, which is a legal process allowing children under 18 to automatically acquire citizenship when a parent becomes a citizen factually.cofactually.co+1. Mainstream reporting consistently cites the year 2000 as the approximate time of her naturalization, though exact documentation has not been publicly released factually.cofactually.co+1.
