Tax cuts for individuals should be made permanent under ‘phase two’ of an overhaul, according to Larry Kudlow, the incoming White House economic adviser.

“Individuals deserve a permanent break,” Kudlow said on CNBC Wednesday following President Donald Trump’s comments that a second phase of tax changes would be coming. Kudlow said he didn’t expect a phase two to cut the corporate rate further.
