What this bill would do
This bill, known as the "Dual Loyalty Disclosure Act," aims to amend the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971. It would require candidates to provide specific information when they designate a principal campaign committee. Specifically, the candidate must disclose if they are a citizen of any country other than the United States. This disclosure must include the identification of the other country of which the candidate is a citizen. The amendment would take effect on the date the Act is enacted.
