Warren Urges Trump to Sign 50-Provision Housing Bill as SAVE America Delay Stalls It

3 articles · Updated · Fox News · Jun 26

Summary

  • Elizabeth Warren publicly pressed Donald Trump to sign the bipartisan 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, saying the housing package is being held up after he tied it to the SAVE America Act.
  • Nearly 50 provisions in the bill aim to cut construction costs, expand housing supply and curb corporate consolidation, which Warren said is worsening a nationwide shortage of millions of homes.
  • Trump previously canceled a planned signing event and insisted lawmakers first advance the unrelated voting-focused SAVE America Act before he would move on the housing measure.
  • Critics say the package adds no new federal funding, does not directly lower homeownership costs and falls short on permitting, even as Warren says it had broad bipartisan backing before the delay.
