Trump calls housing bill ‘a yawn,’ concedes SAVE America Act unlikely to pass
The bill passed with veto-proof majorities and could still become law without Trump’s signature if Congress remains in session.
- On Monday, June 29, House Speaker Mike Johnson transmitted the bipartisan 21st Century Road to Housing Act to the White House, triggering a 10-day constitutional clock for President Donald Trump to sign, veto, or allow the measure to become law automatically.
- President Trump canceled a scheduled signing ceremony last week, refusing to enact the housing measure until Congress passes the SAVE America Act, his preferred voter identification and citizenship-verification legislation.
- The act streamlines environmental reviews and restricts institutional investors owning more than 350 single-family homes from acquiring additional properties, targeting corporate market dominance and increasing housing supply.
- Unless Trump vetoes the bill, it will become law in 10 days if Congress remains in session, though the president dismisses the housing legislation as "a yawn" compared to his voting agenda.
- With median monthly home payments reaching roughly $2,000, nearly double the level seen five years ago, market pressures underscore the urgency of housing relief as the legislative stalemate persists.
