Trump allows bipartisan housing bill to become law without signature

President Donald Trump let a bipartisan housing bill become law without signing it, after weeks of pressure over his push for the SAVE America Act. The measure passed both chambers with broad support and was designed to increase housing supply and ease costs. Trump had said he would not sign the housing package in protest of the Senate’s failure to advance the election bill. He also criticized the housing measure as less important than his voting agenda, while still objecting to some provisions, including limits on Wall Street purchases of singlefamily homes. The law includes dozens of provisions aimed at speeding housing development, reducing some federal review requirements, and encouraging local zoning changes. Republican leaders said they would still promote the bill, even as the White House decision created tensions within the party.
