House GOP seeks renewal of payroll tax cut bill
The House Republicans unveil a 369 page bill renewing the Social Security payroll tax cut through 2012 and extending unemployment aid while trimming benefits. It defers to states on drug tests for unemployment, bars welfare use at certain venues, tightens Social Security numbers for tax credits, and faces a likely clash with President Obama over Keystone XL pipeline language and Medicare premium increases for higher earners.

The National Labor Relations Board dropped its lawsuit against Boeing after a four year contract extension with the Machinists union. The deal withdraws allegations of retaliation against a nonunion plant in South Carolina while promising Boeing will build a new 737 in Washington state.
