I think “the salute” was the final straw for me. Can’t give this man any more of my time & attention, and therefore money. See you on Mastodon or Bluesky.

One thing that astonishes me about @USDResponse's work is that not only do they deploy incredibly talented and public-spirited volunteers, but 5% of those volunteers make the pivot to civic tech careers!

I just received a demo of the upcoming IRS Direct File tool. The IRS has built an impressive product that will give taxpayers a secure option to file their taxes online for free. This pilot program will start small in 2024, to allow the IRS to test it and learn from taxpayers.
