  • 6 years ago

President Donald Trump wants the U.S. corporate tax rate to be 20 percent and is confident he can craft a deal to avoid a government shutdown, White House legislative affairs director Marc Short said on Thursday. Short said he hoped Trump’s meeting with Republican and Democratic congressional leaders, scheduled for Thursday, would produce a two-year budget deal that would outline spending for fiscal years 2018 and 2019.
