Bill overview
This bill, the Ban IRS Biometrics Act, prohibits the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) from requiring taxpayers to provide biometric information like fingerprints or facial scans when filing taxes, receiving services, or accessing their own records. It defines biometric information broadly and mandates that the IRS develop a plan to securely destroy any existing biometric data collected before the bill’s enactment. The goal is to protect taxpayer privacy and security by preventing the use of this potentially intrusive identification method.
