Presidential contender Hillary Clinton will pledge to "reform" capital gains taxation in coming weeks as part of her plan to fight an excessive focus on quick profits in capital markets, according to a campaign talking points document seen by Reuters.
Clinton, the favorite to win the Democratic Party's nomination for the November 2016 election, will speak on Monday about her plan for the U.S. economy, which includes addressing income inequality and encouraging longer-term investment.
The campaign memo, intended to help supporters discuss her ideas with the media and would-be donors, was sent out in advance of that speech.
"In the coming weeks, she will outline specific policiesfor example, by reforming capital gains taxationthat will seek to counter the effect of this short-term focus," the memo, a copy of which was shared by a recipient with Reuters, said.
