A proposed increase in the corporate tax rate won’t drive companies out of the United States, President Joe Biden said on April 5, as he vowed not to negotiate with Republicans over the higher rate.

Speaking to reporters after arriving on The Ellipse in Washington, Biden said there’s no evidence that increasing the rate to 28 percent will harm the economy or spur companies to look abroad.
