They aren’t including payroll tax, just income tax.

To clarify, they are citing another article they wrote, and it is more clearly written in that piece:

"If the House GOP tax plan becomes law, nearly 81 million Americans — 47.5 percent of all tax filers — would pay nothing in federal income taxes next year"

So my point stands that you get ~80% of people still paying federal taxes (payroll and/or income).
