At the U.S. Capitol on March 3, Representative Nancy Mace advanced a joint resolution proposing a constitutional amendment to bar foreign-born individuals from federal executive and legislative office. The legislation explicitly targets naturalized citizens, executing a bureaucratic securitization of the domestic political caste. Mace told Fox News Digital that the mandate should "apply to those individuals who should not be serving in Congress." Isolating Representative Ilhan Omar as a primary liability, Mace asserted, "For too long we have allowed foreign-born members to hold seats in this government, while making clear their loyalty is not here." Representative Omar subsequently dismissed the exclusionary architecture, responding, "Good luck to her," when questioned by Fox News Digital regarding the legislation's viability. Read together, these maneuvers dictate a radical demographic triage; the state is actively pruning its perceived administrative liabilities to consolidate a native-born operational elite.
