Texas Bill, in order to apply and receive a US passport, the applicant MUST be a US citizen. In the case of children adopted by US citizen, The Child Citizenship Act of 2000 (H.R. 2883), governs the conditions by which US citizenship is acquired.
Quote:
The bill grants automatic citizenship to all foreign-born children who are under 18 years of age; admitted to the United States as lawful permanent residents; and in the legal and physical custody of at least one parent who is a US citizen. Parents no longer are required to submit an application to have their children naturalized.
