In a skimpy. but wordy. review of the legislative history. the Court proclaimed that the Congress on three occasions1795. 1797. and 1818failed to enact legislation which would grant it the power of expatriation. and on only one occasion1940enacted such legislation. The Court thereby deduced that the Congress had opposed expatriation 3 to 1a decisive rejection in terms of any election.
