It is not necessary to scratch one's head to go into whether 'would make' or 'will make' is correct. We can arrive at the solution even without considering that. Yet again, including here means 'such as' in order to give some examples. Therefore, we needn't pull the hair to decide what including modifies.
A. would repeal or modify a number of popular tax breaks, including the deductibility of mortgage interest payments so that income tax rates could be reduced -- This is the best choice using correct idiom and proper modal verb "could be"
B. will repeal or modify a number of popular tax breaks, including the deductibility of mortgage interest payments so that income tax rates can be reduced -- 'can be reduced' denotes a material capability and not a probability.
C. will repeal or modify a number of popular tax breaks, which includes the deductibility of mortgage interest payments so that income tax rates could be reduced ---'a number of' is plural. Its verb should be 'which include'.
D. would repeal or modify a number of popular tax breaks, including the deductibility of mortgage interest payments so as to reduce income tax rates--- 'so adjective as to verb' is the correct idiom.
E. would repeal and modify a number of popular tax breaks, including the deductibility of mortgage interest payments so that income tax rates could be reduced --- 'repeal and modify' is altered intent.

Since it is talking about a proposal and not a certain outcome is ascertained, "would" is a better usage than "will".
A. No errors. Correct usage of "would" and "could".
B. No error per se, but "will" is to be used when the outcome is sure. So A is better.
C. "will" and "could" -> inconsistency.
D. "so as to" makes the construction awkward.
E. "repeal and modify" is not correct.
A is the "best" choice.
