what hits me the hardest about this is that one of my living heroes, rep. john lewis of georgia, is backing this awful cause. that part makes me hurt a little.

I’ve just looked over the bill, here:
and I can’t find the restrictions the propublica article mentions. The bill explicitly retains current online systems:
shall continue to make available
6 to all taxpayers (without regard to income) a basic,
7 online electronic fillable forms utility
…and continues the “Free File Program” (where commercial software is provided free to the bottom 70% of all taxpayers), but I don’t see anywhere where the IRS is prohibited from developing competing software in-house.
Is there some independent verification out there of the propublica interpretation?
