The idea of what is now known as the Expatriate Terrorist Act (E.T.A.) was actually introduced last year and seeks to tighten and update “existing regulations by which a U.S. citizen effectively renounces his or her citizenship,” according to the Washington Free Beacon.
Cruz is set to introduce the bill on Friday and says it’s partially on account of Obama’s “detached from reality” State of the Union address. “President Obama’s approach to foreign policy refuses to acknowledge the threats our enemies pose to our national security — it is detached from reality and making the world a more dangerous place,” Cruz said.

The potential 2016 runner has released a video on how Obama has been misleading the American people as to the exact threat such groups impose on Americans.
