Kamala Harris to propose $50,000 tax break for small businesses

Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee, is set to propose policies she hopes will help spur small business creation across the U.S., according to a campaign official.
For one, she wants to expand the small business tax credit tenfold — from $5,000 to $50,000 — to help startups cover the average $40,000 it costs to launch an enterprise. She's also setting a goal of receiving 25 million new small business applications in her first term, up from the record 19 million that were filed under the Biden-Harris administration.
Details of the plan to benefit small business are expected to be unveiled in a speech by Harris in New Hampshire Wednesday.
