Vance v. Terrazas 444 U.S. 252 (1980) was a United States Supreme Court decision that established that a United States citizen cannot have his or her citizenship taken away unless he or she has acted with an intent to give up that citizenship. The Supreme Court overturned portions of an act of Congress which had listed various actions and had said that the performance of any of these actions could be taken as conclusive irrebuttable proof of intent to give up U.S. citizenship.
