House Republicans are looking to get their agenda on track after a chaotic week
Johnson is trying to restart House action as hard-line Republicans threaten to block votes unless the SAVE Act is attached to must-pass legislation.
- On Monday, House Speaker Mike Johnson confirmed he is sending the bipartisan housing affordability bill to President Donald Trump, asserting it will become law despite Trump's recent cancellation of a scheduled signing ceremony.
- Trump abruptly canceled the housing bill signing ceremony, demanding that Senate Republicans prioritize the SAVE America Act, a voter identification measure he declared a "National Emergency" that must precede all other legislation.

- Facing a deadline of only about 28 days before midterm elections, lawmakers must pass critical spending bills to avoid a government shutdown while managing internal GOP divisions that threaten legislative progress.
