Rep. Riley M. Moore, a member of the U.S. House of Representatives, posted a series of statements on April 1, 2026, outlining his legislative intentions and sharing commentary on American values.
In a tweet from the evening of April 1, Moore announced plans for new legislation: “I will soon introduce a bill to denaturalize and deport anyone who commits terrorist attacks or aids and abets terror. Is this a loyalty test? Absolutely. American citizenship is not just about rights – it’s also about duty to your country. This is common sense.” (April 1, 2026).
Earlier that day, Moore directed followers to an interview he gave with Newsmax: “Watch my full interview on @NEWSMAX https://t.co/pjqop0kRI5” (April 1, 2026).
Later in the evening, Moore quoted former President Donald Trump’s second inaugural address in another post: “Americans are explorers, builders, innovators, entrepreneurs, and pioneers. The spirit of the frontier is written into our hearts. The call of the next great adventure resounds from within our souls.” — Donald Trump, second inaugural Artemis II takes the first step in that” (April 1, 2026).
Moore’s statements come amid ongoing national debates over immigration policy and national security measures. Proposals to denaturalize individuals convicted of terrorism have periodically surfaced in Congress but have faced legal scrutiny regarding constitutional protections for naturalized citizens.
The reference to Artemis II highlights continued public interest in U.S. space exploration efforts as NASA pursues its Artemis program aimed at returning humans to the Moon.
