US Bill Proposes Easier Citizenship Revocation

A senator in the US wants to make it easier for the government to take away citizenship from people who became US citizens later in life.

This is called the SCAM Act.

The senator says that if someone does something very bad, like cheating the government or joining a terrorist group, they should lose their citizenship.

The bill says that if someone does these bad things within 10 years of becoming a citizen, it can be proof that they lied when they applied.

The White House supports this idea.

There was a big case in Minnesota where people cheated a children's nutrition program out of $250 million, and many of those people were naturalised citizens.

The bill's supporters say this shows why the new rules are needed.
