Michele Bachmann Granted Swiss Citizenship
Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) has been granted citizenship in Switzerland.
Becky Rogness, a spokeswoman for the conservative congresswoman, said in a statement, "Congresswoman Bachmann's husband is of Swiss descent so she has been eligible for dual-citizenship since they got married in 1978." She added, "However, recently some of their children wanted to exercise their eligibility for dual-citizenship so they went through the process as a family."
