Maybe that is the reason so much American tax money is given to Israel, a citizen of Israel potentially benefits from an influx of money, and they are citizens.

How is it that an elected official that decides legislation does not have to disclose any dual citizenship? Not only are members of congress not required to disclose dual citizenship, they are protected from FOIA inquiries to protect their privacy.

I wonder if their bank accounts have to be disclosed in both countries, or if they have to pay taxes twice?

They should, but they seem to find the best loopholes.

Because they write the best loopholes.
