Fourteen senators want multinationals to quit inversions cold turkey. Or at least, they’d like a two-year moratorium on the practice of a firm changing mailing its address  to lower its corporate tax bill. During that period, Congress would, theoretically, have time to advance corporate tax reform and improve the United States’ competitiveness in the global marketplace.
