What this bill would do

This bill is titled the ``Getting Terrorist Fanatics Out Act of 2026''. It proposes amendments to the Immigration and Nationality Act. The main goal is to provide for the denaturalization of certain individuals who provide support for terrorism. Specifically, it targets those convicted under sections 2339A or 2339B of title 18 of the United States Code. If convicted, a court would revoke the person's citizenship and cancel their certificate of naturalization.
