Proposed Provision: E2.4. Eliminate the taxable maximum for years 2030 and later (phased in 2024-2030), and apply full 12.4 percent payroll tax rate to all earnings. Provide benefit credit for earnings above the current-law taxable maximum that are subject to the payroll tax, using a secondary PIA formula. This secondary PIA formula involves: (1) an "AIME+" derived from annual earnings from each year after 2023 that were in excess of that year's current-law taxable maximum; (2) a new bend point equal to $9,360 in 2024, indexed by wages after 2024; and (3) formula factors of 3 percent and 0.25 percent below and above the new bend point, respectively.
