GOP Plans to “Turbocharge” Trump’s Denaturalization Project Threaten the Nation’s Core Values

The denaturalization campaign that began under Trump, and which close advisor Stephen Miller now promises to “turbocharge” is an attack on the fundamental principles of fairness, stability, and equal rights that citizenship represents.”

WASHINGTON, DCKerri Talbot, Executive Director of the Immigration Hub, issued the following statement on Citizenship Day. 

“On Citizenship Day, we recognize and celebrate the millions of immigrants who have embraced the opportunities of U.S. citizenship. For these individuals, citizenship represents a commitment to the values of democracy, equality, and shared prosperity that define our nation. Naturalized citizens have long been key contributors to America’s growth and success, enriching our economy, culture, and communities.

“However, it is imperative to acknowledge that these same citizens would be under attack in a Trump-Vance administration. Their Project 2025 agenda would target naturalized citizens and see those who have earned their place in this country deported. The denaturalization campaign that began under Trump, and which close advisor Stephen Miller now promises to “turbocharge” is an attack on the fundamental principles of fairness, stability, and equal rights that citizenship represents. Such policies are rooted in fear and exclusion, not in the principles of justice and equality that should guide our nation.”
