Freshman Rep. Sean Duffy (R-WI) is calling on his fellow House Republicans to pass a two-month payroll tax cut extension, the Wausau Daily Herald reports.

In a news release, according to the paper, Duffy said:

“I’ve said all along I’d be willing to support a two-month payroll tax cut extension if that was our only option,” Duffy said in a news release issued this afternoon.

“Of course, I still believe middle class families would be better served by the certainty of a one-year payroll tax holiday, but this isn’t about proving a point. This is about preventing hardworking Wisconsin families from paying an extra $40 a week for the dysfunction in Washington, D.C.”
