The Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) placed a tax on workers and employers in the United States. This legislation was enacted in 1935 to fund Social Security and Medicare programs. It requires both employees and employers to contribute a percentage of wages, ensuring financial support for retirees and individuals with disabilities. The tax is typically deducted from employees' paychecks, while employers match the contribution.
