The SALT cap is effectively a backdoor tax hike on the rich. The only modifications that might be worthwhile would be to eliminate the marriage penalty in the cap as it's $10k for MFH, HoH, and Single returns and $5k for MFS. Something like $6k for MFS and Single, $9k for HoH, and $12K for MFJ makes sense. I'm not tied to any particular numbers, just the 2:3:4 ratio that is already used for the standard deduction. The numbers I used in my example result in an increase for some and a decrease for others. Also indexing the cap to inflation would be reasonable.
