55 Republicans Urge Trump

If you are a US citizen born in Jerusalem, your US passport won’t say “Israel” on it.  Now the Republicans want to change this to further recognize the capital of Israel.

A letter from 55 US House of Representatives Republicans to President Donald Trump asks him to direct the State Department to allow US citizens born in Jerusalem to list Israel as their birth country on their passport.
“Despite the progress in moving the embassy, the State Department has not yet fully implemented the administration’s policy of recognizing Jerusalem as Israel’s capital for purposes of registration of birth, certification of nationality, or issuance of a passport of a United States citizen born in the city of Jerusalem,” said the letter sent September 17.
