The Cost of Filing Your Taxes Could Go Up. Why? - Senator Elizabeth Warren [View all]
It may cost you more money to file your taxes this year.
Have you ever used TurboTax? If you have, you know how expensive and annoying filing your taxes with them can be.
That’s why—after years of organizing and pressure—the IRS started a program last year called Direct File, to make filing your taxes easy and free directly with the IRS.
This month, the Trump administration officially ended it.
Now, Trump doesn’t just want to make life worse for you to enrich a few tax prep companies. At the same time they’re making it more expensive for you to file your taxes, Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress are bending over backwards to make the tax code work better for the rich and powerful everywhere. - 11/20/2025.
