Proposed Provision: E1.10. Increase the payroll tax rate by 0.1 percentage point per year for 2026 through 2035 so that it equals 13.4 percent for 2035 and later. The increase would be split evenly between the employer and employee share, and would be split between OASI and DI in proportion to currently scheduled payroll tax rates.
