Last week, the President announced a Payroll Tax “holiday” to start on 9/1 and last until the end of 2020 with the goal of eliminating the 6.2% tax permanently.

In today’s workshop, we’ll discuss what exactly the President said, the current costs of Social Security and Medicare, and the current revenue being generated to pay for these programs.
