Trump: Biden Corporate Tax Hike Would Kill 1M Jobs

Former President Donald Trump’s campaign said Monday that President Joe Biden’s proposal to hike the corporate tax rate would result in the loss of 1 million jobs.

In his $7.3 trillion budget proposal for the 2025 fiscal year, Biden wants to raise the corporate tax rate on billion-dollar companies from 15% to 21% and the overall corporate tax rate to 28%, CNBC reported Monday. He also wants a minimum 25% tax on the unrealized income of the wealthiest households.

“Raising the corporate tax rate to 28% would result in an immediate loss of approximately 1 million American jobs over the first two years, and 600,000 jobs every year over the next 10 years,” Trump’s campaign said in a news release on its website.
