Brett Shumate, the head of the DOJ’s Civil Division explains the plan in his June 11 memo. It directs the Civil Division to prioritize denaturalization proceedings and sets ten “categories of priorities for denaturalization cases... the Civil Division retains the discretion to pursue cases outside of these categories as it determines appropriate. The assignment of denaturalization cases may be made across sections or units based on experience, subject-matter expertise, and the overall needs of the Civil Division. The provision is so vague that it would permit the Division to denaturalize for just about anything. - Joyce Vance

Taking away your citizenship
How the Nazis stripped Jews of their German citizenship
Prior to 1933, Jews in Germany were full citizens, protected by the Constitution of 1919. That changed after Hitler came to power. A law passed in 1933 authorized the denaturalization of East European Jews who had become German citizens since World War I and Jews who had already fled from Germany. The laws were vague. Instead of naming Jews, they permitted denaturalization of people who were "undesirable," or were outside of Germany if their "conduct violated the duty of loyalty toward Germany or harmed German interests."
The Nazis seized assets from people they denaturalized
Their spouses and children could be included. There was no due process, no judicial or administrative proceedings of any kind available to challenge actions taken against these people. The Library of Congress and the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum maintain documentary evidence of what happened. - Joyce Vance
Republican Bill would give billions to ICE for deportations
“The average American probably hasn’t seen an ICE raid in action, but they will if this bill passes,” he added. “It’s going to be everywhere.” - HuffPost
The bill would provide $45 billion to build immigration jails “for single adult alien detention capacity and family residential center capacity” — a 13-fold increase over ICE’s 2024 detention budget, according to a National Immigration Law Center analysis.
A separate part of the bill allocates $29.9 billion in additional funding for ICE activities, including hiring thousands of new immigration agents and giving them five-figure signing and retention bonuses, as well as for transportation contracts to shuttle migrants between detention centers and out of the country, Migrant Insider reported.
TakeAway: Call your MAGA rep: Vote against the Republican bill that would give billions to ICE while cutting programs for working Americans.
