Republicans Launch Tax Plan

Republican leaders in the US Congress have unveiled a framework plan to overhaul US taxes, by lowering rates for US corporations and working families.

Over the coming weeks, they aim to negotiate a new law which will also incentivize multi-nationals to repatriate overseas profits. 

Critics are concerned that the plan will be based on over-optimistic projections of economic growth and lead to much higher deficits.
