Is preserving your ability to deduct mortgage interest from your taxes worth two minutes of your time? If your answer is yes, keep reading. 

In just two minutes, you can tell your representative in Washington that you support the Mortgage Interest Deduction (MID) and encourage them to oppose any effort to change the MID. It’s as simple as 1,2,3:

  1. Click on this link to go to our legislative action center. Then, simply type in your name, address and zip code.
  2. Using our legislative action center, you will then be able to email your respective representatives to ask them to support House Resolution 25 being sponsored by Rep. Gary Miller (R-CA) and Rep. Greg Meeks (D-NY).  Once you hit the send button, our system does the rest.
  3. Share this call to action on Facebook —start a conversation with your friends and others.
By taking these three simple steps, you can help us send the message to Congress that we believe the Mortgage Interest Deduction is more important to homeowners in today’s economy than ever before.
Thank you for taking the time to help raise awareness about this issue with Congress.
