The House-Senate congressional committee will hold its second public meeting on Wednesday to resolve the chambers’ differences on how to pay for longer extensions of the payroll tax cut, unemployment insurance and Medicare “doc fix.”

It’ll be the committee’s second public meeting, the majority staff of the House Ways & Means Committee announced. The three provisions are set to expire on March 1 and both parties agree they should be extended.
