The budget would fund air ports bridges highways and rail by a one time 14 percent tax on overseas corporate profits up to 2 trillion dollars. It aims to cut the top corporate tax rate to 28 percent and tax foreign profits at 19 percent with credits for foreign taxes paid. Democrats back the plan while Republicans remain skeptical about a new infrastructure bill.
