There is a new push by Senate Democrats to push through an extension of the payroll tax cut (expand it some, in fact) and pay for it with a new tax on people with adjusted gross income over 1 million dollars. The payroll tax cut will be for this year and the new tax on millionaires would start in 2013 (?) Is it permanent? Take a look:

If anything actually happens on this, I will let you know.
