A Harris poll of 1,495 adults shows 43 percent favor and 43 percent oppose raising Social Security taxes. People under 30 oppose by 53-33, while those 60 plus back the measure 57-25. Support rises with lower incomes, while higher earners oppose the tax increase. The survey notes fear of funding shortfalls and consumer price effects.

His aide had claimed he blocked conference sessions to take a taxpayer funded eight nation trip, but Ketchum argued the delay aimed to keep the conference committee from dropping his provision.
