WASHINGTON — A top adviser to President-elect Barack Obama said Sunday that the country’s slowing economy won’t keep the new administration from fulfilling its plans for a middle-class tax cut.
“We feel it’s important that middle-class people get some relief now,” Obama adviser David Axelrod said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
The incoming administration is considering tax cuts of $1,000 for couples and $500 for individuals that will be delivered by reducing the tax withheld from paychecks.
