The Trump administration is seeking a dramatic reduction in the rate of corporation tax to 15 per cent, a White House official said, as the president seeks to accelerate growth by easing burdens on US business.
白宫一名官员表示，特朗普政府寻求将公司税税率大幅削减至15%。美国总统唐纳德?特朗普(Donald Trump)试图通过减轻美国企业负担来加快经济增长。
That rate would be lower than the corporation tax rate being sought under plans developed by House Republican leaders, but it mirrors Donald Trump’s campaign goals to more than halve corporation tax from the current 35 per cent.
这一税率低于众议院共和党领导人拟定的计划中寻求实施的公司税税率，但与特朗普在竞选期间提出的将公司税税率从目前的35%下调一半以上的目标大致吻合。
The proposed reduction comes as the administration places a higher priority on easing taxes than on curbing the US budget deficit. As such, it will encounter a rocky reception among fiscal conservatives in Congress, who worry about America’s escalating public debt and will be the arbiters of what tax legislation is proposed and passed.
这一拟议中的减税方案推出之际，特朗普政府把减税摆在了比遏制美国预算赤字更重要的位置上。就此而言，此举将很难被国会中的财政保守主义者认同，这些担心美国公共债务不断攀升的议员，将是提出和通过何种税务法案的仲裁者。
Steven Mnuchin, the Treasury secretary, has suggested that tax reductions would pay for themselves by galvanising higher growth and generating fresh revenue for the government.
美国财政部长史蒂文?姆努钦(Steven Mnuchin)暗示，这一减税方案的成本可因提振增长和为政府创造新收入而抵消。
