Proposal to Revoke Passports Sparks Controversy
Democrats have criticized a proposal that would give Secretary of State Marco Rubio the power to revoke Americans' passports over alleged terror ties.
The House Foreign Affairs Committee formally killed the GOP proposal, with one lawmaker calling it an "attempt to subvert our Constitution's right to free speech."
- The proposal was introduced by Brian Mast, R-Fla., as part of a larger State Department reorganization bill.
- It would have allowed the secretary of state to refuse to issue passports or revoke them from people determined to have provided material support to terrorists.
