Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) said Tuesday that he is "livid" over a New York Times story detailing how Apple avoids billions of dollars in taxes.
"Why
should Apple pay at 10 percent and some other company that can't export
their technology ... why are they paying 35 percent?" Coburn asked
during an appearance on MSNBC's "Morning Joe."
Coburn said he sent a letter to Sen. Carl Levin (D-Mich.) saying they have "to take a look" at how Apple pays such a low rate.
The GOP senator said Congress should reform the tax code and "get rid of the loopholes."
