Waaah! looks like the union salaried guys that work overseas may have an interest in tax reform down the road.

No, Bob. Not union-salaried guys. It's talking about foreign* income, not income earned in a U.S. based union job while working in a foreign country.

*Those workers would no longer be able to exclude the first $80,000 of their foreign income from U.S. taxes, but they could claim a credit against any foreign taxes paid.

I thought it was addressing the untaxed foreign employment. My very liberal friend at work says her father in law works in the mid east for big bucks and doesn't have to pay US taxes. He is either in a union or just pro union and I guess I just assumed that he had some special tax break because of a sweetheart dema-deal.
