WASHINGTON — Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has a new proposal to extend a tax cut for U.S. workers, a Democratic ally said Sunday.
Sen. Kent Conrad, D-N.D., said on “Fox News Sunday” that Reid will announce today the details of a plan that would extend a cut in the payroll taxes used to pay for Social Security. Conrad would not reveal the specifics but said “it will be paid for” and will represent a compromise on Republican and Democratic plans the Senate voted on last week. Neither had the votes to pass.
