Talk:Outline of tax law changes

Bill outline structure
As viewed in a web browser, the bill's outline structure is nearly impossible to follow. Since each section entry is unique and in numerical order, it is much easier to manage by listing the section number and formal title. Readers will then be able to find the bill's text.

All legislation is managed via XML format. However, additional processing is needed to show the legislation in a clean outline format. More information is provided here:
 * Bill Status Bulk Data | Congress.gov | Library of Congress
 * Legislative Documents in XML at the United States House of Representatives
 * Download the United States Code
 * GitHub - unitedstates/uscode, A working parser for the US Code's hierarchy, in python

Converters from XML to Excel (.csv) formats can be found via google. You can also do this yourself (see GitHub link), but the data is still not presented in a clean format.

Coverdell to 529 plan rollover
I removed mention of 529 plan to Coverdell rollover, as it is not in that section of the bill. The rollover is already permitted, see: Moving a Coverdell Account
