\u201cLast year, @FedEx pocketed $6.7 B in profits but paid only $483 M in taxes, a 7.2% rate. Under my Corporate Profits Minimum Tax, giant companies like FedEx would have to pay more in taxes. This will raise hundreds of billions in revenue, and it\u2019s just plain fair.\u201d— Elizabeth Warren (@Elizabeth Warren) 1637252173
"While these companies report billions in profits, they often pay no income tax to the IRS and leave hardworking families holding the bag."
