So, because it's too hard to repeal a tax cut for a small percentage of a population, you think it would be easier to do so if the repeal affected more people?

This distorts her argument and the issue slightly. There is nothing to repeal. The repeal was written into the act. The debate is over whether to repeal the repeal or not. She argues for doing nothing. And doing nothing is always easier than doing something.
