Nancy Mace Accuses Ilhan Omar of ‘Foreign Allegiance’ amid Push to Ban Foreign-Born Lawmakers from Congress– slaynews.com

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) is escalating her criticism of foreign-born members of Congress, accusing Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) of having a “foreign allegiance” and arguing that elected officials with loyalties to other nations should not be serving in the federal government.

The South Carolina Republican made the remarks while defending a constitutional amendment she recently introduced that would require members of Congress, federal judges, and certain executive branch appointees to be natural-born U.S. citizens.
