Texas Congressman Ted Poe introduced the "FTO Passport Revocation Act" to strip the passports of Americans fighting for ISIS.

They cite a Yale Law Journal article arguing that a U.S. citizen has a constitutional right to a means of identification while abroad and that the government lacks the legal precedence to cancel a passport without contesting citizenship in court.

### Passport Revocation Legalities, State Department Rules

- **Episode:** [526: #meh!](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/526-meh.md)
- **Published:** 2013-06-30
- **Time:** 1:15:12–1:17:57
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/526-meh/chapter/passport-revocation-legalities-state-department-rules.md

The legal implications of passport revocation are examined following the State Department's action against Edward Snowden. According to official guidelines, a revoked passport remains physically valid for travel until seized by an officer, and revocation is generally not processed if the bearer's whereabouts are unknown. The move is characterized as "messaging" rather than a functional barrier to international movement.
