President Trump allowed a significant housing bill to become law without his signature, protesting Congress's failure to pass voter ID legislation. The 21st Century Road to Housing Act aims to lower housing costs and marks a rare bipartisan achievement.
Despite broad bipartisan support and praise from Democrats and Republicans, President Trump refused to sign the "21st Century Road to Housing Act," a significant housing bill. He cited the Senate's failure to pass the "SAVE America Act" voter ID bill as his reason, stating he would only sign the housing bill if the voter ID bill was also passed. The housing bill, aimed at making homeownership more affordable by encouraging homebuilding, will automatically become law if Trump does not veto it by midnight ET.
President Trump unexpectedly canceled a housing bill signing, delaying a temporary ban on a Fed-issued digital dollar. He conditioned his signature on Congress passing the SAVE America Act, an elections bill requiring voter ID and proof of citizenship, frustrating lawmakers.
