## New U.S. Bill Could Force First Lady, Son to Choose Between U.S. and Slovenian Citizenship
A newly introduced U.S. Senate bill could force holders of dual nationality to decide: keep their U.S. citizenship or retain foreign citizenship — but not both. The proposal directly threatens to upend the dual-citizenship status of high-profile individuals such as the First Lady and her son. (
### What the Bill Says
The bill — known as the Exclusive Citizenship Act of 2025 — would bar U.S. citizens from holding any foreign nationality simultaneously. If enacted, dual citizens would have a fixed period (typically one year after passage) to choose which citizenship to keep. Failure to decide, or refusal to renounce one nationality, could result in automatic loss of U.S. citizenship.
According to the legislation’s text, anyone who voluntarily acquires a foreign citizenship after enactment would also be presumed to have relinquished U.S. citizenship
### Who Would Be Affected — Including the First Family
Among those directly impacted are Melania Trump and her son Barron Trump. Melania — originally from Slovenia — became a naturalized U.S. citizen in 2006, but has retained her Slovenian citizenship. Barron, by virtue of his mother, also holds both U.S. and Slovenian passports.
If the bill becomes law, both may be forced to choose: maintain their U.S. citizenship and give up Slovenian nationality — or vice versa. The decision carries more weight than a mere passport swap: it touches on identity, heritage, and access — including remaining rights to live, work or study in Europe through Slovenian/EU citizenship.
### Legal and Political Ramifications
Proponents of the bill, including the sponsor Bernie Moreno (R-Ohio), frame it as a matter of loyalty and national allegiance. Moreno has argued that being “an American citizen is an honor and a privilege” and that allegiance to the United States should be undivided.
Critics, however, warn of sweeping consequences. The law could strip citizenship from millions of dual nationals — including immigrants, children of immigrants, and long-standing U.S. residents with foreign ties. It raises constitutional questions too: under existing constitutional norms, citizenship cannot typically be revoked absent voluntary renunciation.
For high-profile figures like the First Lady and her son, the optics and personal stakes are particularly sensitive — turning what might be a bureaucratic requirement for some into a deeply personal identity choice.
### What It Reveals About Dual-Citizenship Debate
This proposed law underscores a broader tension in modern societies: globalization and migration have made dual — even multiple — citizenship common. But some policymakers now question whether dual nationality undermines national loyalty or complicates legal and security frameworks. ([Newsweek][2])
For many, dual citizenship represents more than legal status — it’s a link to homeland, culture, family, and opportunity. Forcing people to choose can feel like forcing a choice between different parts of one’s identity.

This story is still unfolding. The bill has drawn significant attention — both legally and politically — and it remains to be seen whether it will pass into law. But if it does, its effects could be wide-ranging, affecting not only prominent individuals but millions of everyday Americans with ties abroad.
