Subject: Field report from FPC

Submitted by : Member Submitted on : 12/13/2010Full name : FPCEmail : xx@abc.comLegislator Name : Rep. XXInteraction Type: EventInteraction Date: 12/11/2010Comments : I attended a USO Pancake Breakfast and Toy Drive for young Marine families at the Marine Corps Air Station, Miramar in San Diego. I was invited by the Congressman to sit at his reserved table. After discussion about other topics happening in Washington, DC, I was able to bring up the topic of Mortgage Interest Deduction. The Congressman was very emphatic that he is against making any changes to this important tax deduction. He totally understands that the real estate market is very fragile. He is the executor of his recently deceased Mother’s estate. He understands where the market is. I spent about 45 minutes talking to him, his wife, and their daughter.
