Intuit has worked for years to block free filing, Warren says.
In response, Intuit director of corporate communications Derrick Plummer provided the following statement toIntuit strongly believes that Americans should be at the center of their financial life and is proud to have helped more taxpayers file their taxes for free than all our competitors combined. Over the past eight years alone, Intuit’s free tax preparation offering has helped nearly 100 million Americans file their taxes completely free of charge.
Warren’s letter also notes a “revolving door” problem in enforcement, in which Intuit hires former regulators to help deflect government action. A recent court filing revealed that the company had hired former FTC chair Jon Leibowitz “to defend itself from an FTC complaint,” which Warren says raises conflict of interests concerns. A 2019
found that Leibowitz was one of dozens of former FTC officials with such potential revolving door conflicts.
