Letter: USMI Letter for the Record for the Committee on Ways and Means’ January 14th Hearing

January 28, 2025


USMI submitted a letter for the record for the House Committee on Ways and Means’ January 14, 2025 hearing titled “The Need to Make Permanent the Trump Tax Cuts for Working Families.” As the Committee on Ways & Means assesses the expiring and permanent provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), USMI strongly encourages Congress to support existing homeowners and prospective homebuyers by reinstating, making permanent, and expanding eligibility for the mortgage insurance (MI) premium tax deduction. USMI specifically urges Congress to include the bipartisan, bicameral Middle Class Mortgage Insurance Premium Act in tax legislation considered in 2025 and commends Representative Vern Buchanan (R-FL) and Jimmy Panetta (D-CA), as well as their counterparts Senators Thom Tillis (R-NC) and Maggie Hassan (D-NH), for championing this common-sense and targeted tax policy to assist working families.
