What happened
President Donald Trump said he remains undecided on whether to sign a bipartisan affordable housing bill, dismissing it as “a big yawn” and “so unimportant” compared with his preferred SAVE America Act election legislation. Speaker Mike Johnson sent the housing measure to the White House after Trump had earlier disrupted plans for a signing ceremony by demanding that Congress also advance his voting overhaul, including proof-of-citizenship requirements. The remarks undercut Republican leaders and White House aides who had promoted the housing package as a major affordability initiative. Trump’s comments come as housing costs remain a central political issue ahead of the midterms, leaving the fate of the landmark bill uncertain.
