Now I have found conflicting info.
That it did eliminate the over age 65 and/or blind extra standard deduction.
" Increases the standard deduction to $12,000 for single filers, $18,000 for heads of household, and $24,000 for joint filers, while eliminating the additional standard deduction and the personal exemption. Provisions sunset at the end of 2025.

If this is correct, single seniors who don't itemize have lost $250 right out of the gate.
