Call Congress about Taxation Reform now


RAISING YOUR VOICE FOR RESIDENCY BASED TAXATION

Democrats Abroad has had Residency Based Taxation as part of our platform for nearly two decades, but both Democrats and Republicans living abroad agree on the need for tax reform for Americans abroad. 

After two surveys in the past few years profiling the problems FATCA  and Citizenship Based Taxation cause for Americans abroad, countless meetings with members of congress, the IRS and Treasury, and thousands of calls from our members to their representatives these issues are finally being discussed in Washington!

The Democrats Abroad Taxation Task Force is making another trip to Washington DC and we need your help putting a little more wind at our backs.  

Below is a list of members of the House Ways and Means Committee and the Senate Finance Committee.  

If your Representative or Senator is on this list please send them an email or better yet, give them a call. 

If you need help creating your message please use our Tax Reform for Americans Abroad campaign in a box.  http://www.democratsabroad.org/taxation_reform_campaign_in_a_box
