🔴Trump refuses to sign the largest housing bill since 1980

The US Congress passed the "21st Century ROAD to Housing Act" by an overwhelming margin: Senate 85-5, House 358-32 (veto-proof - the passing vote ratio is high enough that the president cannot veto). Main content:
- Cut NEPA procedures, accelerate project approvals
- Reward local governments that build more housing, cut CDBG for slow local governments
- Limit investment funds owning ≥350 homes from purchasing more single-family homes
- Pilot FHA loan guarantees <$100K
- Promote prefabricated, modular, ADU
- Raise RAD cap by 100,000 units
- Ban Fed from issuing CBDC until 2030
- No increase in mandatory federal spending
-> Trump still tries to delay, demands that Congress pass the SAVE America Act first, claiming: "This housing bill is less important than the SAVE America Act" even though the two are unrelated.
The SAVE America Act requires proof of US citizenship when registering to vote in federal elections.
A bipartisan consensus bill is being used by the President as a condition to pass a bill that reflects his own will.
