Warren–Waters Rift Tests Democratic Housing Push

Elizabeth Warren and Maxine Waters, longtime Democratic allies on economics, are clashing over how to frame the biggest housing reform in decades: Warren backs a Senate bill restricting Wall Street’s housing investments, while Waters cut a more industry-friendly deal in the House. The House bill passed; the Senate’s path is uncertain as leadership on both sides push different versions, with White House backing the House after last-minute changes. The dispute centers on private equity rules and built-to-rent provisions, illustrating a broader Capitol Hill rift as lawmakers seek to boost housing affordability.

GOP bets on summer reconciliation push as housing, ballroom funding and oversight dominate Capitol Hill

House Republicans, led by Speaker Mike Johnson, are aiming to push a third party-line reconciliation bill before July as they navigate messaging and a crowded policy agenda. The White House is pressing the House to take up the Senate’s housing bill, but GOP lawmakers seek changes and oppose a proposed $1 billion Secret Service funding for security around President Trump’s ballroom. Democrats renew oversight into the Epstein deal, and crypto-ethics negotiations loom ahead of a Thursday markup. Other Capitol Hill notes include Anna Paulina Luna weighing a future RNC chair bid and Rep. Tom Kean Jr. remaining absent due to a medical issue.

House Republicans are pushing for amendments and debating provisions such as a permanent ban on a central bank digital currency and a $1 billion security funding tied to Trump’s ballroom, complicating passage as leadership seeks a bipartisan, bicameral bill to send to the president’s desk.

House Speaker Mike Johnson said the House may move to a formal conference with the Senate to reconcile differences in the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, a process that could delay passage of the housing bill as Republicans push back on provisions like a temporary central-bank digital currency ban and limits on institutional buyers of single-family homes, while the Senate presses ahead with the measure.
