On January 1st, 2013, the payroll tax cuts previously enacted to encourage spending and stimulate the economy lapsed. For the average American, this results in a $35-$100 per month decrease in net pay. In times of inflation and decreasing purchasing power, every dollar counts for many families. The cost of allowing the payroll tax cut to lapse will hurt many households. I implore you to consider making the payroll tax cuts originally enacted in 2011.
