This week, our clinic signed-on to a letter to Secretary of State, John Kerry, regarding efforts in the Dominican Republic to strip citizens of foreign descent of their citizenship. The letter urges Secretary Kerry to express his concern to the Dominican government, encourage the Dominican government to bring their citizenship regime back into compliance with the Inter-American system and relevant international treaties and law and, in the meantime, implement the recent Constitutional Court ruling in a way that minimizes harm to affected people.
