Former President Donald Trump vowed to put an end to double taxation on Americans who live abroad. Vice President Kamala Harris vowed to form a bipartisan advisory council.
Trump’s promise relates to a U.S. law that requires Americans to file tax returns every year, even if they live and work abroad. It also requires them to potentially pay taxes on their worldwide income in addition to any taxes they may have to pay in their country of residence.
Harris said she welcomed the diversity of viewpoints, and did not mind having her ideas challenged, “because the best ideas will survive those challenges.” She reiterated that she intends to appoint a Republican to her cabinet, a vow she originally made in August.
