The legislation heretofore was retroactive and sought to cancel the citizenship of those who voted in that election. This bill. however. carries the word "hereafter ". so as to cancel the citizenship of those who shall hereafter vote in a political election in a tforeign country. I submit it is sought to cancel the citizenship of people naturalized by judicial process. doing it- automatically and summarily. If you are going to confer citizenship by judicial process. then the proper thing to do is to divest them of that citizenship by a similar procedure. This bill makes noprovision for proof. no provision for giving a man his day in court.
