Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden unveiled a plan to help American workers on Wednesday, promising a series of executive actions and blaming President Trump for a manufacturing recession.
Key features of “The Biden-Harris Plan to Fight for Workers by Delivering on Buy America and Make It in America†include a penalty against American companies that offshore manufacturing and service jobs to other countries and then sell back to the U.S. market. It also calls for a “Made in America†tax credit.
“President Trump talks and talks – but he has failed to deliver results for American workers,†said an outline of the plan from the Biden-Harris campaign. “That ends under the Biden-Harris administration.â€
The offshoring penalty would include a 10% surtax on top of a 28% corporate tax rate. The plan specifically notes that it would apply to call centers or other services that American companies place in other countries to serve the American market, when those jobs could be in the U.S.
