German Jews were citizens of Germany at the start of 1933. By the end of 1933, the Nazis had removed citizenship from naturalized citizen Jews. In 1935, all German Jews were fully stripped of their German citizenship. Citizenship under dictatorships is contingent for targeted minorities.

Democrats "blocked" this bill by ... not voting for it. No dirty tricks or sneaky moves, they just didn't vote for a GOP bill. It needed 60 votes to pass, 53 Reps and 2 Dems voted for it. That, according to the broken Washington Post, means Democrats Are To Blame even though the GOP runs it all.
