Republican Donald Trump is proposing a big tax cut for companies like Apple Inc., which would see its tax rate slashed on about $200 billion of profit it keeps offshore.

Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton laid out proposals to streamline financing and taxes for entrepreneurs and small businesses while telling business owners that Republican Donald Trump would put his interests ahead of their own.

Venture investors, facing the possibility of bigger tax bills, are trying to convince Washington that they’re special and should be exempt.

Hillary Clinton’s Democratic presidential campaign said Monday that Republican Donald Trump’s proposals to overhaul the federal tax system would benefit “high-debt investors like himself,” opening a new line of attack.

Although the tax positions of the two major candidates would face major hurdles before either one becomes law, interested observers have wasted no time in dissecting them, praising them or pointing out defects.

Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton could have cut her 2015 federal tax bill roughly in half—lopping about $1.7 million from what she owed—under the plan offered by Republican rival Donald Trump.

Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., is urging Congress to exempt Olympic medalists from taxes on their medals and monetary bonuses.

Donald Trump’s campaign is preparing to tweak one of his boldest tax proposals out of concern that it might lead some high-income earners to try “to scam the system,” one of the Republican presidential nominee’s economic advisers said.

Hillary Clinton ripped Donald Trump's economic plan as a boon to the wealthiest Americans, including himself and his family, that will only increase the burden on middle-income taxpayers already pressured by stagnant wages.

When Donald Trump first rolled out his tax plan last October, it contained a major boon for the middle-class—a near quadrupling of the standard income-tax deduction, to $25,000 for individuals and $50,000 for couples filing jointly.
