DOJ moves to strip citizenship from 40 naturalized Americans in largest-ever effort

Oct 5, 2026

The Department of Justice filed denaturalization actions against 40 naturalized U.S. citizens, accusing them of concealing "serious offenses" during the naturalization process, including acting as an agent for a foreign government, voluntary manslaughter, and aggravated sodomy against a special-needs man. Attorney General Todd Blanche called it "the largest denaturalization effort in modern history," and Assistant Attorney General Brett Shumate said the individuals "lied their way into U.S. citizenship." The 40 people originally came from countries including Mexico, Colombia, Pakistan, Haiti, Nepal, and Ghana, part of a broader push that has targeted hundreds of naturalized Americans for denaturalization this year.

Immigration agents raided a family home in rural Donna, Texas, in January, arresting Julio Orosco and Lucero Garza, who had been living in the country without authorization. Garza was deported to Mexico while Orosco remains in custody. Their six children, ages 11 to 22, have had to assume caretaking and financial responsibilities, with 22-year-old Andrea taking on the role of head of household. Older siblings have set aside plans for college and marriage to work and support the family, while younger siblings have taken on farm chores and have shown signs of withdrawal.
