Mr. President. sixth. I introduce for appropriate reference a bill to repeal certain provisions of the Immigration and Nationality Act under which naturalized citizens are treated differently than nativeborn citizens. The first section of the bill provides for a short titlethe "Naturalized Citizens Equality Act." The second section of the bill would amend section 340 of the Immigration and Nationality Act by striking out all provisions under which a naturalized citizen might be subject to the revocation of his naturalization solely because of the commission by him of certain acts which occur after he has procured his naturalization. The third section of the bill would strike out sections 352. 353. and 354 of the Immigration and Nationality Act which describe certain cases in which naturalized citizens are to lose their nationality solely by reason of certain residence abroad following their naturalization. These grounds for loss of nationality do not apply to nativeborn citizens. I ask unanimous consent that the full text of the bill be printed in the RECORD at this point.
