COMMENT: HAITIAN-TRUTH.ORG
In all fairness, the Chamber of Deputies, and Senate should do the same thing, also providing proof that they have not been convicted of a felony offense, which would bar them from office.

At least 30 Deputies and Senators have dual citizenship.

Others have criminal records which bar them from being a candidate, let alone a sitting member.
