Naturalization Accountability Act

This bill would change federal law on taking away U.S. citizenship from people who became citizens through naturalization. It would add a conviction for any felony, at any time, as a ground for revoking naturalization. It would remove the current rule that revocation for joining certain totalitarian or treasonous organizations applies only if the person joins within five years after naturalizing. It would also remove the 10-year time limit for bringing federal criminal charges for unlawfully obtaining citizenship or naturalization under section 1425 of title 18, so charges could be brought at any time.
