Trump halts signing of sweeping housing bill, elevating another agenda
TL;DR
Trump canceled the signing of the bipartisan 21st Century Road to Housing Act, billed as the largest housing affordability bill in a generation, saying he’ll instead push the SAVE AMERICA ACT first. The measure would boost housing supply, streamline zoning and permitting, and curb large investors buying single‑family homes, while also supporting manufactured and modular housing and local infrastructure. Even without a signature, the bill could become law within 10 days if Congress doesn’t veto it. Democrats praised the agreement, while critics like Elizabeth Warren criticized the cancellation and prioritized other priorities.
