Strongly agree

Yes, as long as offshore income is reported

Shapiro would most likely support allowing offshore accounts as long as all income is properly reported and taxed. This aligns with Democratic efforts to strengthen IRS enforcement and close loopholes, such as the Biden administration's push for increased financial transparency and reporting requirements.
