Should immigrants to the United States be allowed to hold dual citizenship status?
Multiple citizenship, also called dual citizenship is a person's citizenship status, in which a person is concurrently regarded as a citizen of more than one state under the laws of those states. There is no international convention which determines the nationality or citizen status of a person, which is defined exclusively by national laws, which vary and can be inconsistent with each other. Some countries do not permit dual citizenship. Most countries that permit dual citizenship still may not recognize the other citizenship of its nationals within its own territory, for example, in relation to entry into the country, national service, duty to vote, etc.

No, when accepting United States citizenship, you should have to revoke your prior, and when accepting citizenship in another country, you should also rescind your U.S. Citizenship.
@9TJGVFC3mos3MO
No, you cannot be loyal to two countries. Where their interests conflict, an individual must choose one between them.
@96336V6 3mos3MO
No, they need to pledge allegiance to the Republic of the United States of America, and revoke the status for those currently holding dual citizenship.
@9M6C3LY7mos7MO
The presence of 20 African children and 2 Americans, and funding flooding outside of the country is concerning.
