Republicans Tell Biden No Corporate Tax Hike

Sens. Mitt Romney (R-UT) and John Hoeven (R-ND) told President Biden they are opposed to increasing the corporate tax rate to pay for his proposed $2.25 trillion infrastructure package, Axios reports.

“The opposition from Romney and Hoeven, the only two Republican senators in Monday’s bipartisan Oval Office meeting, suggests Biden is going to have a difficult time finding any Republican support to pay for his road, bridge and health care spending proposals by increasing corporate rates.”

Drawing red lines like this will convince Democrats to abandon bipartisanship pretty quickly.
