HJ 8 Wyoming House · 2026 Regular Session

Citizenship-sole allegiance to the United States.

HJ 8 is a proposed constitutional amendment (not yet enacted) that would require Wyoming voters and elected officials to hold sole U.S. citizenship. It would bar individuals with citizenship in a country designated as a "foreign adversary" (e.g., China or Russia) from voting or holding office unless they renounce that foreign citizenship. The amendment specifies that anyone seeking or holding office who voluntarily acquires such foreign citizenship would automatically lose their eligibility for that office. This proposal is currently in early legislative stages and would require voter approval to become part of Wyoming's constitution.
