Kentucky Republicans propose banning naturalized and dual citizens from public office, requiring a constitutional amendment for state positions.
Two Republican-led bills in Kentucky would bar naturalized citizens and those with dual citizenship from holding local and state public offices, requiring a constitutional amendment for state-level changes.
The legislation, introduced amid national debates over citizenship and loyalty, targets positions like mayor, city council, and governor, and includes a one-year residency requirement.
It has drawn criticism from advocates and officials, including Lexington Vice Mayor Dan Wu, a naturalized citizen, who called it a political distraction.
The bills have two co-sponsors but have not yet been discussed with party leadership, and their constitutionality is under review.
