Presidents often try to implement tax cuts (Obama has cut taxes several times since he has been in office). But tax cuts generally cannot be repealed unless congress goes along with it.

Can obama repeal bush tax cuts?
No, not alone. Only congress can repeal the law or write new one. The president can recommend to congress what he wants. The president also can veto the law written by congress or agree and sign it. But it should be noted that President Obama wants to keep some of the Bush tax cuts-- for the middle class especially. But he feels the wealthy do not need another tax cut, when they have already gotten a number of them.
