What it does
The DEPORT Act of 2026 would amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to require all naturalization applicants to sign a sworn attestation disavowing any past or future intent to commit terrorism-related offenses, as specifically defined in the bill. It would also establish that terrorism-related convictions or conduct occurring after naturalization can serve as prima facie evidence that citizenship was illegally procured, potentially leading to denaturalization and removal proceedings. The bill affects individuals seeking U.S. citizenship and naturalized citizens, imposing new attestation requirements and expanding grounds for revoking citizenship based on terrorism-related actions.
