House GOP agrees to short-term fix

WASHINGTON (AP) ? It looks like there'll be a short-term extension of a tax cut.

GOP aides say House Republican leaders have agreed to a two-month extension of the Social Security payroll tax cuts and federal unemployment benefits.

The move reflects a retreat by House Republicans and appears to all but assure 160 million workers aren't hit by a 2 percentage point increase in the payroll tax on Jan. 1.
