FATCA is a law that affects so many negatively. We are partnered with a group in Washington that is working hard to get FATCA repealed. We are asking for your help.
Below is a list of people that think that FATCA should not be repealed. We then list those that support the Same Country Exception (SCE). Finally, we list some of those leading the charge to repeal FATCA.
We implore you to reach out to each group to express your opinions, in a respectful way. It's important to reach out to those that not only think repealing FATCA is a bad idea, but also to those working so hard to have it repealed as they can use all of the support they can get!
On Twitter, use #FATCA and #repealFATCA. Feel free to tag us, @IRSMedic.
