It's a proposal, but it is "stalking horse", meaning that it is meant to be shot down while they prop up something else like ANWAR and killing NPR in its place. They will say something like "Look, we know you want the mortgage deduction, we have 'saved' it for you, now you have sacrfice something else." Of course, the Robber Baron Republicans won't have to sacrifice anything. The Cargo Cult Republicans will continue sacrifice their self-interest by voting Republican until they wake up.
