Tax payroll tax holiday ends in 2013 for millions
The 4 percent Social Security payroll tax cut will expire at year end 2012 leading into 2013. Obama and Romney have not proposed an extension and lawmakers show little appetite to extend the relief. Analysts warn a typical worker could lose about $1,000 annually, with higher losses for two earner families. AARP backs expiration citing it as temporary and bipartisan support favors ending the tax provision. Senator Orrin Hatch notes the tax cut did not greatly boost the economy and funds Social Security are at stake.
