Trump Faces Saturday Deadline as Bipartisan Housing Bill Nears Law Without Signature
3 articles · Updated · NBC News · Jul 10
Summary
Saturday is the deadline for President Donald Trump to veto a sweeping bipartisan housing affordability bill; without action, the measure will become law.
Overwhelming margins in Congress last month put the bill on the president’s desk and left him little room to block legislation with broad bipartisan backing.
Trump already canceled a planned signing ceremony for the 21st Century Road to Housing Act after Congress failed to pass his voting rights bill, signaling he may let the housing measure take effect unsigned.
The standoff ties a major housing package to a separate political fight, with the bill now poised to advance despite Trump’s public dismissal of it.
