Obama’s plan also would shift the burden of proof to individuals when the IRS alleges assets are being hidden in certain offshore bank accounts, the White House said in a statement "
There is the money quote from the linked AP news article. it's already challenging at best to defend oneself from IRS action, and there are apparently civil rights that have not been shredded sufficiently enough, so let's put the burden of proof on the accused.

The deal has been altered. Pray he does not alter it further.
