Chris Coons: “The American public often is much more skeptical about the commitment of U.S. forces abroad than this body is”

I’ve been working for years to fix this flaw in our tax code to ensure that Americans currently held hostage or wrongfully detained abroad don’t owe thousands of dollars to the IRS when we finally bring them home.

The STRATA Act would use America’s advantages in innovation and our strong ties with partners and allies around the world to secure our critical mineral infrastructure.

For too long, Delaware veterans have been shut out of a program designed to support them, and Delaware has been left behind by Washington in its effort to ensure that every veteran who comes home has help when they need it.

It’s ridiculous that one of the first things an American hostage or wrongful detainee receives from the government when they return home from captivity is a tax bill.
