President Barack Obama's budget proposals will include a minimum tax of 19 percent on U.S.-based companies' future foreign earnings and a 14 percent tax on their stockpiled offshore profits, Bloomberg news said on Saturday, citing two people familiar with the budget. The planned taxes are part of a $3.99 trillion budget plan that will be rolled out on Monday and is designed to help middle class and poorer Americans by increasing taxes on the wealthiest, Bloomberg reported. Obama wants to use new revenue to pay for infrastructure projects and these two provisions, along with the extension of certain laws that are set to expire, would yield $565 billion over 10 years, according to one of the people cited by Bloomberg in the report (http://bloom.bg/1zJb5Kw).
