Wyoming HJ0008 proposes an amendment to the state constitution to disqualify individuals with dual citizenship from holding elected office.

Wyoming HJ0008 proposes an amendment to the state constitution to ensure that only individuals who are solely citizens of the United States can be qualified electors or hold elected office. The amendment specifies that any person who voluntarily acquires citizenship in a foreign adversary of the United States while seeking election or holding an elected office would be deemed to have relinquished United States citizenship. The amendment also provides a process for renouncing foreign citizenship. This proposal aims to ensure sole allegiance to the United States for those in elected positions.
