As may professional Realtors know, one of the best parts of being a homeowner is the tax deduction that a homeowner received.
Congress is considering eradicating this important legislation.
You need to take action for your business, but more importantly for all of our past, present and future clients.

Subject: Broker Call for Action: Preserve, Protect, Defend the Mortgage Interest Deduction
**PRESERVE, PROTECT and DEFEND MID**
You can shape legislation by being heard early and with strong
conviction. This is one of those times. Congress needs to hear from
you. Warning signs have appeared on Capitol Hill about mortgage
interest deductibility. Homeowners have taken big hits the past few
years. We cannot have Congress adding to the injury.
Watch NAR President Ron Phipp's video Call for Action explaining why
our action is so urgent. Then send your letter asking your
Representative to cosponsor H.Res25, a bipartisan House resolution
that affirms the value and importance of the Mortgage Interest
Deduction.
Realtors need to direct Congress to Preserve, Protect and Defend the
MID. No economic recovery is possible without a vibrant housing
market. Please Take Action today.
**TAKE ACTION**

**WHAT'S-AT-STAKE**
House and Senate committees are already holding hearings to
gather the perspective they need to craft a new tax system for
the 21st century. These hearings will take most of this year.
Congressional leaders from both parties, as well as the
Administration, continue to insist that "Everything is one
table," including MID.
Changes to the MID in any form would have an adverse effect on the
entire housing market, potentially lowering home values and slowing
sales. Each change to the mortgage interest deduction opens the door
for full elimination later on, and could have an even broader effect
on local economies and jobs, such as in markets reliant on second
homes.
