Should American citizens who fight on the side of the Vietcong. and shoot our servicemen. be entitled to retain their U.S. citizenship? Myriad other situations can pose dilemmas of equal complexity and seriousness. Is it possible for a nation to operate in the vacuum created by Afroyim against Rusk? I think not. I am introducing a constitutional amendment which clearly states that the Congress shall have the authority. through appropriate legislation to proscribe for the loss of citizenship as well as for the granting of citizenshipexpatriation as well as naturalization. I urge immediate consideration of this subject by the Judiciary Committee and ask for support from interested persons and organizations.
