Treason is covered in Article 3 Section 3 of the original Constitution. The statements are a bit ambiguous about who the act of treason is talking about. The New Constitution specifies it is a Citizen who commits treason.
In addition, the New Constitution changes the phrase “aid and comfort” to “aid, comfort or materials”. This makes the act more specific and removes the problem with the word “and” requiring both to be treason.
