Another 2020 Dem calls for corporate tax rate hike
2020 Democratic Presidential candidate Amy Klobuchar said on Sunday that if elected, she would “bring [the corporate tax rate] to 25 percent.”
“My plan is a trillion-dollar infrastructure plan, paid for by rolling back the parts of the Republican tax bill that were very regressive, like the corporate tax rate — if you bring it to 25%, you save $400 billion in 10 years,” Klobuchar said in New Hampshire.
The Klobuchar tax hike would impose a tax rate higher than the current combined corporate rate across the 36 member Organization for Economic Development and Cooperation (OECD), which is currently 23.7 percent.
State corporate taxes average 6 percent across the U.S., so the Klobuchar tax hike would give the U.S. a combined average corporate rate of 31 percent.
An increase in the corporate tax rate would also directly raise the cost of utility bills in all 50 states.
