Revoking citizenship of dual nationals involved with terrorism offences by the minister
People who support this policy believe that the federal government should give the immigration minister the power to revoke the citizenship of people who have dual nationality (that is, are also citizens of another country) if they take part in certain terrorism-related offences [NOTE: following a High Court decision that ruled that the Minister did not have the power to revoke citizenship in this manner, there is now a new policy titled "Revoking citizenship of dual nationals involved with terrorism offences by the courts", which involves giving the citizenship-revoking power to the courts rather than the Minister themself].
View on They Vote For You →How each party's members voted
Each bar is 100% of a party's current members in the Senate whom They Vote For You places in one of its seven agreement groups for this policy (its own categories, shown as published). Bars show percentages of members, not vote totals; the number beside each bar is how many members that is. Members They Vote For You says haven't cast enough votes on the policy are counted separately, not in the bars.
