What they stand for
Plaskett has spent years focused on a few core fights. Each is tied to bills actually introduced or votes actually cast.
01
Tax code should treat territories equitablyPlaskett has sponsored multiple bills to modify Internal Revenue Code provisions as applied to U.S. territories. The Territorial Tax Parity and Fairness Act (HR.368), the Territorial Tax Equity and Economic Growth Act of 2025 (HR.364), the Territorial Tax Parity Act of 2025 (HR.365), and the Territorial Tax Parity and Clarification Act (HR.367) each address different aspects of how federal tax law applies to territorial residents and businesses.
02
Territorial economies require dedicated recovery supportPlaskett sponsored the Territorial Economic Recovery Act (HR.363) and legislation to direct specified revenues into the treasury of the Virgin Islands (HR.366), reflecting a legislative focus on the structural economic conditions facing U.S. territories and their fiscal relationship with the federal government.
03
Health coverage policy should extend fully to territoriesThe Territories Health Equity Act of 2025 (HR.6494), which Plaskett has reintroduced across multiple Congresses, addresses disparities in federal health program funding and eligibility that apply differently in U.S. territories compared to the fifty states.
04
Caribbean trade and prosperity merit dedicated legislationPlaskett has sponsored the HOPE for Haitian Prosperity Act in successive Congresses (HR.10435 in 2024; HR.5209 in 2025), legislation addressing trade and economic conditions in Haiti and the broader Caribbean. She has also sponsored the Virgin Islands Visa Waiver Act of 2025 (HR.362), which would modify visa requirements affecting travel to and from the Virgin Islands.
05
Infrastructure and agriculture access matter for territoriesPlaskett sponsored the Broadband Internet for Small Ports Act (HR.1838), which would expand broadband connectivity to smaller port facilities, and the Farm to School Act of 2025 (HR.6065), which addresses connections between local agricultural producers and school nutrition programs.

01 · Background
Who they are, where they came from
Stacey Elizabeth Plaskett is an attorney and politician serving as the delegate to the United States House of Representatives from the United States Virgin Islands' at-large congressional district, a position she has held since January 2015.

She has practiced law in New York City, Washington, D.C., and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Her legislative record centers heavily on the distinct fiscal and regulatory circumstances of U.S. territories, reflected in a cluster of tax-related bills introduced in the 119th Congress: the Territorial Tax Parity and Fairness Act (HR.368), the Territorial Tax Equity and Economic Growth Act of 2025 (HR.364), the Territorial Tax Parity Act of 2025 (HR.365), and the Territorial Tax Parity and Clarification Act (HR.367), each addressing provisions of the Internal Revenue Code as they apply to the territories. She has also sponsored the Territorial Economic Recovery Act (HR.363) and legislation to direct revenue into the Virgin Islands treasury (HR.366). Beyond fiscal matters, Plaskett has sponsored the Virgin Islands Visa Waiver Act of 2025 (HR.362), the Territories Health Equity Act of 2025 (HR.6494), the Broadband Internet for Small Ports Act (HR.1838), and the Farm to School Act of 2025 (HR.6065).
