White House floats new tax plan to get enough Senate Democrats behind trillion dollar spending bill
(Worthy News) – The White House is considering new tax-increase plans to get enough Democrat senators to pass President Biden’s stalled multi-trillion dollar, social services and climate change package.
The plans call for scrapping a proposed big increase in corporate tax rates and instead including a new, so-called “billionaires’ tax” on the investment gains, according to the Associated Press.
The passage of Biden’s bill – now estimated at $2 trillion, compared to $3.5 trillion – faces resistance from two Senate Democrats including Arizona’s Kyrsten Sinema, who opposed the original plan to tax the country’s highest earners by undoing Trump-era tax breaks.
