Proposed Provision: E3.10. Beginning in 2032, apply 2 percent payroll tax rate on earnings over the wage-indexed equivalent of $300,000 in 2017 (about $549,000 in 2032), with the threshold wage-indexed after 2032. Provide proportional benefit credit for additional earnings taxed, based on the payroll tax rate applied to the additional earnings divided by the full 12.4 percent payroll tax rate.
