This week, Rep. Nancy Mace of South Carolina introduced a joint resolution to bar foreign-born U.S. citizens from serving in Congress, the federal judiciary, and as Senate-confirmed political appointees. The Constitution already prohibits foreign-born citizens from serving as president and vice president, but Mace, who is currently running to be South Carolina’s next governor, wants to extend that to other high levels of government.

Her targets are Democrats like Reps. Ilhan Omar, Shri Thanedar, and Pramila Jayapal — all of whom, according to Mace, have divided loyalties. If the measure were to pass, however, it wouldn’t just bar these left-wing Democrats from serving in Congress, it would also affect several sitting Republicans who are naturalized citizens.

Of course, Mace’s proposed amendment has almost no chance of passing. It would require a two-thirds majority vote in both chambers of Congress and ratification by three-fourths of U.S. states. But that doesn’t mean it’s a bad idea. Prohibiting foreign-born citizens from Congress and the federal judiciary would have the salutary effect of keep radicals like Omar and Jayapal away from power, as well as the cadre of radical foreign-born federal judges, many appointed under the Biden administration, who have worked ceaselessly to undermine President Trump’s agenda since the day he took office.

More important than the merits of the proposal, however, are the reactions to it, which serve as a timely reminder of how thoroughly we’ve been propagandized into believing the false liberal narrative that the United States is a “nation of immigrants.”
