Multiple citizenship, also called dual citizenship is a person's citizenship status, in which a person is concurrently regarded as a citizen of more than one state under the laws of those states. There is no international convention which determines the nationality or citizen status of a person, which is defined exclusively by national laws, which vary and can be inconsistent with each other. Some countries do not permit dual citizenship. Most countries that permit dual citizenship still may not recognize the other citizenship of its nationals within its own territory, for example, in relation to entry into the country, national service, duty to vote, etc.
@ISIDEWITH6yrs6Y
No, and we should not allow any new immigrants into the country at this time
@988NV6X10mos10MO
America is a country of immigrants. We are lucky to be here. Why should we deny others the right to live in this amazing place?
@9FFDM3F4 days4D
People need to come here and we need them to help us. They should be citizens of both places because they where born in the place they came from and live with us.

Yes, holding dual citizenship status allows immigrants to preserve their cultural heritage
@8JY9S343yrs3Y
Not well informed on the topic
@9FCSPMSWomen’s Equality6 days6D
They should be able to yes, but it should have more restrictions so let’s say, if they commit a crime they can be sent back because of the significance of the crime
@9FCQ77Z6 days6D
Yes but only after extensive background checks and continued monitoring
@9FCBMMB1wk1W
I think no because if they wanted to be here then they are citizen to one area not both

Dual citizenship is a human right, so absolutely!
@9DYFPXVRepublican3wks3W
I am unfamilia with this subject
@9DRHX76 3wks3W
No, not for those who are genuinely immigrants interested in citizenship and residency; if they are merely residing here however long the duration, just as US citizens may do abroad, then they are solely citizens of the nation they traveled from
@9DRHF2L3wks3W
Yes, but US citizenship should require paying taxes, healthcare cost, and speaking English
@9DQ33RL4wks4W
for schooling or things like that
@9DNK5XB4wks4W
If there nice then yes.
@9DM85TD4wks4W
Only for one other country, if they were born there, or lived there most of their life, and that country is friendly to the US. And they vow their primary allegiance to America.

Yes, as long as it is not from an enemy country
@9DFMZNG1mo1MO
Yes, unless the country of origin does not allow this (such as Spain, which requires you to forfeit your previous citizenship to obtain theirs).
@9DF86ZV1mo1MO
Yes, but they may not hold a position in politics.
@9DDXM3ZConstitution1mo1MO
Yes, unless from a country where terror risk is high
@9DDV5HB1mo1MO
Yes, unless the country they hold dual citizenship with does not allow for such (such as Spain, in which you must revoke one citizenship for theirs).
@9DDNWXT1mo1MO
@9DDM8PH1mo1MO
Yes, but allow all privileges to apply for all people regardless what country they're traveling from and what class they have and have the necessary requirements to be obligated including being an official U.S citizen (including the American Citizens themselves)
@9DDL4JQ1mo1MO
Yes, but they should not be able to vote in American elections unless they have lived in the country for at least the past 5 years.
@9D9QYL61mo1MO
Yes if they have good reason
@9D66T4VRepublican2mos2MO
Yes, but only if they prove to not be a national security risk (for e.g. if they don't hold government secrets or classified information) and if they don't hold any positions within government agencies with such secrets.
@9D5TX272mos2MO
Yes, but only for Europeans
Yes, we're all earthlings first
@9D5QVXX2mos2MO
