This is  the real hidden issue that has surfaced regarding the tax cuts. It did not cross my mind that this deduction was allowing massive transfers of Federal money from conservative states to liberal states. Why should states get a tax break for overspending and if they lose this "income" they will be forced either raise taxes or reduce spending. That's a win-win for the rest of the country.
Please eliminate this deduction... I'm even in a State that will get hit and want it.
