Trump delays signing landmark housing bill, tying it to voter ID push

TL;DR Summary
President Donald Trump cancelled a planned signing ceremony for the bipartisan 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, delaying a bill aimed at lowering housing costs and boosting supply. He said he would only sign it after the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act (SAVE) passes, linking housing policy to his voter-ID agenda. The measure, which includes more than 40 provisions to streamline building and curb certain investor purchases, cleared both chambers and could become law after ten days if not vetoed or adjourned, though Republicans and Democrats offered mixed reactions. The issue is a priority for voters across parties.
