THE HILL: House GOP releases payroll-tax package under Obama veto threat. “The legislation will add $25.3 billion to the federal deficit over the next 10 years, according to the Congressional Budget Office. The congressional scorekeeper also noted that the bill includes lower caps on discretionary-spending ceilings agreed to in the summer’s debt-ceiling deal that could reduce the deficit by $1 billion. But CBO cannot include those assumptions in its official score, it said, because they are subject to the enactment of future legislation.”

If revenue is an issue, just add some of my tax proposals to the bill.
