Vice President Kamala Harris is on record calling for raising payroll taxes on workers. It’s further evidence that middle class households would pay higher taxes under a Harris White House.
The presumptive Democratic presidential nominee personally authored a post on Medium during her 2020 presidential bid endorsing the creation of two additional payroll taxes as part of her “Medicare for All” plan. In her plan, Harris proposes a 7.5% payroll tax on employers and a 4% payroll tax on households with a combined income over $100,000 to be directly withheld from an employee’s paycheck.
