FSM History

Dual-citizenship amendment fails again; only Kosrae (85% yes) passes 75%, Yap 48%.

What happened

The amendment would have repealed the constitution’s ban on dual citizenship. It won 61% in Chuuk and 71% in Pohnpei but needed three-quarters of the vote in three states.

Why it matters

Dual citizenship finally passed in every state in 2023.
