Westerman Co-Sponsors Anti-Terrorism Legislation

Statement

Congressman Bruce Westerman (R-Hot Springs) issued the following statement announcing his co-sponsorship of H.R. 178, the Terrorist Denaturalization and Passport Revocation Act:

"The Terrorist Denaturalization and Passport Revocation Act protects the United States from attacks by those seeking to join terrorist organizations and invoke terror here at home. Should an American take up arms with those looking to inflict harm on the U.S., this bill suspends the individual's passport, revokes citizenship and prevents re-entry to the country."

The bill, introduced Friday, is sponsored by Rep. Steve Womack (R-Rogers).
