Call for Action: Tell Your Senator Home Ownership Matters: Defend MID

The Mortgage Interest Deduction is vital to both home ownership and our economy.

Please make a quick call to your senator's office today to ask him or her to defend the MID from any cuts or reduction as outlined in the Deficit Commission Report released last week.

Please enter your cell phone number below to be connected to your senator's office right now. As soon as you hit "Click to Call," your phone will ring with instructions before being connected to your representative's ofice. Suggested talking points are listed below (and after you submit the form), but feel free to speak personally about the importance of the MID to your business.

Suggested Talking Points

When you're connected, please say the following:

 I am a constituent and a REALTOR®.
 I have been on the front lines of the housing crisis. I can assure you that even talk of changing MID harms an already fragile market.
 I am strongly opposed to the Deficit Commission's proposal to limit or eliminate the Mortgage Interest Deduction.
 News reports saying that Congress threatens to repeal or limit MID will keep potential buyers on the sidelines and further delay the housing recovery. 
 
 Please oppose any efforts to reduce or eliminate the Mortgage Interest Deduction in any future deficit reduction proposals or legislation. Thank you for helping to ensure the ongoing recovery of the housing market. As a member of the National Association of REALTORS®, I appreciate your belief that home ownership matters.

If you call outside of office hours, please leave a voice mail communicating the message above.
