Bipartisan housing bill clears House, aiming to ease affordability

Congress approved a major bipartisan housing bill in a rare show of cross‑party cooperation, passing the House 358–32 and sending the measure to President Trump. The legislation would increase housing supply and curb costs by restricting large institutional purchases of single‑family homes (capped at 350) and expanding federal grants, though analysts say its impact on prices is uncertain and more work is needed ahead of the midterms.
