Voting problems for Americans overseas

In this episode of AARO Voices, we explore the hard-won history — and urgent present challenges — of voting rights for the 5.5 million Americans living overseas. From AARO’s founding in 1973 and the historic 1975 “Teabag Campaign,” to the passage of the Overseas Citizens Voting Rights Act, UOCAVA, and the MOVE Act, this episode traces how Americans abroad secured their right to vote. Today, new legislative and legal efforts threaten to make overseas voting more difficult once again. Learn what’s at stake, what AARO is doing to defend overseas voters, and how you can help protect the fundamental principle of “no taxation without representation.”Banking for Americans Living Abroad explains why U.S. expats often face account closures and limited banking access. This episode of AARO Voices explores FATCA, compliance challenges, and practical banking solutions for Americans overseas, with guidance from the Association of Americans Resident Overseas (AARO).
