Position Papers - 2026

U.S. legislation and discriminatory practices make it increasingly difficult for Americans to live and work overseas and burden their visits and eventual return to the U.S. We urge Congress and the Administration to pass new tax legislation, simplify financial reporting requirements, protect voting rights, and improve access to Social Security and Medicare benefits.

Citizens abroad must be given timely notifications, consistent with due process, of measures affecting their rights. These measures will help overseas Americans in their role as ambassadors abroad while improving American competitiveness and the creation of jobs.
