During this meeting, community representatives also discussed current U.S. investments in Armenia, particularly in the IT field and emphasized how they can be enhanced by limiting double taxation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cOn behalf of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/anca.pasadenachapter?fref=ts\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ANCA of Pasadena<\/a>, which represents thousands of Armenian American constituents in Congressman Chu\u2019s Congressional District, we say thank you to the Congresswoman for urging the Obama Administration to pursue a Double Tax Treaty with the Republic of Armenia,\u201d commented Vahe Majarian, ANCA Pasadena Chair. \u201cCongresswoman Chu\u2019s effort on this matter highlights her pro-active leadership in addressing matters of deep concern to the growing Armenian American constituency in California\u2019s 27th Congressional District,\u201d added Majarian.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In August of last year, senior ANCA officials met with U.S. Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew in Washington, DC to press for a new U.S.-Armenia Double Tax Treaty. The current treaty governing double taxation issues between the two countries is the 1973 U.S.-U.S.S.R. Tax Treaty, an outdated forty year-old accord. The lack of a double tax treaty between the United States and Armenia creates legal uncertainty that deters potential U.S. investors, diverts investment flows and disadvantages American businesses seeking to invest in the Republic of Armenia.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Congresswoman Judy Chu represents the 27th Congressional District, which includes Pasadena and the west San Gabriel Valley of southern California. She has been a staunch supporter of the Armenian American community since she was elected in 2009 and has co-authored the annual Armenian Genocide resolutions as well as a number of other federal pieces of legislation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A two-page ANCA fact sheet on a U.S-Armenia Double Tax Treaty can be found at this link:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/anca.org\/assets\/pdf\/ANCA_Double_Tax_Treaty.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/anca.org\/assets\/pdf\/ANCA_Double_Tax_Treaty.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Armenian National Committee of America-Western Region is the largest and most influential Armenian American grassroots advocacy organization in the Western United States.
