The Department of Justice on Monday announced that it had begun the process of denaturalizing 10 criminals with prior convictions and/or pending charges.
The 10 individuals hail from Cuba, Mexico, Pakistan, Peru, and Poland. Their charges include sexual abuse, fraud, drug trafficking, and other crimes.
"These ten criminal aliens - including child sex abusers, a $900,000 Medicare fraudster, and a cocaine trafficker - lied their way into U.S. citizenship," acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said in a statement.
"Each of these individuals lacked the good moral character required by law and procured citizenship through willful misrepresentations and concealment of their crimes," he added. "Under President Trump's leadership, this Department of Justice will continue to aggressively pursue denaturalization to restore integrity to America's naturalization process."
Denaturalization is a relatively rare process, but often occurs when a recipient commits fraud to obtain U.S. citizenship.
