I don’t think so.
Citizenship can be stripped if they immigrant can be proven to have lied or provided falsified data on their immigration and naturalization paperwork and interviews.

This happened a number of times with former Nazis who omitted their histories.

They can be stripped of their citizenship and deported.

I think you’re right and I was wrong. It’s illegals that go for felonies. Naturalized is more tricky.

But this could prove to be a good discussion topic. I recall Lennon’s fight with immigration, which led to the beginnings of ‘deferred action’. Maybe we should ask, is ‘dual citizenship’ and DA a good idea in a hostile world?

the website NOLO says: “To lose U.S. nationality, a person must both (1) voluntarily perform any of seven “expatriating” acts defined by law, and (2) perform the act or acts with a conscious desire (or specific intent) to abandon (relinquish) his or her U.S. nationality.”

I think the first five on the list below have to be ‘out of country’ acts. Here’s ‘the seven’:

INA § 349 states that a citizen, whether a U.S. citizen by birth or naturalization, shall lose his nationality by voluntarily performing certain acts with the intention of relinquishing United States nationality. The fact of intention is critical; it is not the mere performance of the actions mentioned in § 349. Seven types of conduct are currently listed in the INA as expatriate. The potentially expatriating acts are: (1) applying for and obtaining naturalization in a foreign country, provided the person is at least 18 years old; (2) making an oath of allegiance to a foreign country, provided the person is at least 18 years old; (3) serving in the military of a foreign country as a commissioned or noncommissioned officer or when the foreign state is engaged in hostilities against the United States; (4) serving in a foreign government position that requires an oath of allegiance to or the nationality of that foreign country, provided the person is at least 18 years old; (5) making a formal renunciation of U.S. citizenship to a consular officer outside of the United States; (6) making a formal renunciation of citizenship while in the United States and during time that the United States is involved in a war; and (7) conviction for treason or attempting by force to overthrow the U.S. government, including conspiracy convictions.
