U.S. Representative Randy Fine of Florida has indicated that he would support an effort to expel Representative Ilhan Omar from Congress if ongoing inquiries into long-standing allegations regarding her personal history were to produce evidence supporting those claims.
During a recent interview, Fine said he is awaiting additional information concerning allegations about Omar’s past, stating that if the claims are confirmed, he believes there should be a vote on the House floor to remove her from office. However, no formal expulsion proceedings have been introduced, and no official findings have been released regarding the allegations.
At the same time, Fine has introduced new legislation known as the “Disqualifying Dual Loyalty Act.” The proposal would require all members of the U.S. House of Representatives and Senate to hold only U.S. citizenship while serving in Congress. Under the bill, lawmakers with dual citizenship would be required to renounce any foreign citizenship in order to remain eligible for office.
Fine argues that members of Congress should owe allegiance solely to the United States, saying elected officials cannot effectively “serve two masters.” He contends that exclusive loyalty to the U.S. is essential for maintaining public confidence in Congress and protecting national interests.
The bottom line is that you can’t serve two masters.
If you’re going to serve in the United States Congress, you should serve America ONLY.

Representative Andy Harris has voiced support for the proposal, emphasizing concerns about national security rather than simply voting records.
Harris argued that lawmakers have access to classified intelligence and sensitive national security information, raising questions about whether dual citizenship could create potential conflicts of interest. He also noted that several members of Congress were born outside the United States and suggested that lawmakers should formally renounce any prior national allegiances if they continue to hold foreign citizenship.
Both Fine and Harris specifically referenced Ilhan Omar while discussing their concerns, claiming that some lawmakers may place foreign interests ahead of American priorities. However, they did not present specific evidence to support those assertions during their remarks.
Despite Republican support for the measure, the legislation faces significant political hurdles.

Harris acknowledged that the proposal is unlikely to advance in the Senate, where Democratic opposition is expected. Nevertheless, supporters say introducing the bill is intended to establish stricter eligibility standards for federal office and reinforce the principle that members of Congress should demonstrate exclusive loyalty to the United States.
Meanwhile, Fine’s comments regarding Omar signal the possibility of a future expulsion effort if additional evidence emerges. Under the U.S. Constitution, expelling a member of Congress requires approval by a two-thirds majority of the House of Representatives, making such actions uncommon and difficult to achieve. As of now, no formal expulsion resolution has been scheduled, and both the legislation and any potential disciplinary action remain uncertain as political debate continues.
