The issues of Defense and National Security are important to our district and to my work in Congress.
In 1988, I enlisted in the Marine Corps Reserves and was proud to serve with the 3rd Force Recon in the Persian Gulf War spending time in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. In 1997, I enlisted in the MS National Guard where I currently still serve. Most recently, I spent a year supporting Operation Iraqi Freedom at Mobilization Center Camp Shelby.
My service in the military has provided me with a unique understanding of the Expatriate taxation and how it affects U.S. citizens working abroad and paying taxes to the U.S. Government. Through this knowledge, my wife and I started Palazzo & Company, PLLC, in 2001 to help US citizens working abroad.
For more information concerning my work and views on the issues of Defense and National Security, please contact my Washington, DC office.
I look forward to your feedback.
Thank you.
