BREAKING: Jim Jordan introduces a new bill that would require American-born citizenship for both the presidency and Congress. Would you support this?
The bill, introduced in early 2025, aims to amend existing eligibility rules by requiring that candidates for the presidency and Congress be born on U.S. soil. Currently, the U.S. Constitution mandates that only the president must be a natural-born citizen, while members of Congress can be naturalized citizens who have met specific residency requirements. Jordans proposal would drastically tighten these rules, effectively barring naturalized citizensmany of whom have lived in the U.S. for decades and served the country in countless waysfrom holding some of the nations highest offices. The announcement, first reported on platforms like Newsbreak and Quora, has ignited a firestorm of reactions, with hashtags like #JordanBill and #AmericanBorn trending across social media.
What makes this bill so explosive is its potential to upend the political system. If passed, it could disqualify prominent figures in Congress, including naturalized citizens like Rep. Ilhan Omar and Rep. Pramila Jayapal, both of whom have been vocal advocates for progressive policies. The prospect of such high-profile exclusions has fueled speculation about the bills true motives. Is Jordan targeting specific political opponents, or is this a genuine push for stricter eligibility standards? Social media is buzzing with theories, with some users on Threads suggesting the bill is a MAGA power grab to cement conservative dominance. Others argue its a distraction from more pressing issues like the economy or crime, which Jordan himself has highlighted in recent posts about Democrat-run cities.
