Iirc you can stop paying taxes but literally only if you give up your US citizenship entirely. But to do that, you have to book an in-person appointment with feds where you convince them to give you permission. And I'm pretty sure there are no laws or procedures they have to follow; it's just vibes-based whether or not they let you go.
