Also are considering raising the minimum tax on U.S. companies’ foreign income to 16.5% from 10.5% and increasing the top capital-gains tax rate to 28.8% from 23.8%. L

ADDED, Washington Post have more and it be more accessible (ie not gated, WaPo often is but it seems to be ungated for now), link here
- want corporate tax rate raised to 26.5% only for firms with >$5 m income
- for firms with income under $400K they want to lower the rate from 21% to 18%
- those b/w $400K-$5M would see rate flat at 21% as currently
