SPEAKER MIKE JOHNSON is sending the housing bill to President DONALD TRUMP.
Starts a 10-day clock for him to take action -- or it becomes law
Affordable Housing retweeted
Trump has zero leverage on this housing bill. If he doesn't sign it in ten days, it becomes law. If he vetoes it, there's more than enough votes to override the veto. He's not very good at this.

Yesterday the White House touted the bill Trump now refuses to sign as "one of the most significant pieces of housing affordability legislation in American history."
Tomorrow at 12PM on Capitol Hill, President Trump will sign into law the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, one of the most significant pieces of housing affordability legislation in American history.
This bipartisan bill includes policies long championed by the President. It cuts unnecessary red tape, helps increase housing supply, and limits the ability of large institutional investors to purchase single-family homes.
As the President has said, homes should be owned by American families, not large corporations.
President Trump promised to lower housing costs, and he is delivering, making it easier for every family to achieve the American Dream of homeownership.
Tomorrow’s historic bill signing is another promise made, promise kept.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
President Trump, on the morning of 6/24, announced that he was cancelling the planned signing of the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act.

To be clear: Trump has no leverage here. If he doesn’t sign the housing bill within 10 days, it becomes law automatically. If, before then, he vetoes, Congress has the votes to override.

Still trying to wrap my head around Kash firing a unit that specializes in Iranian counter-intel LAST WEEK -- when they knew war was coming -- because the agents were involved in the Trump classified docs case.

The Senate is moving ahead on a package, newly named the "21st Century ROAD to Housing Act." Lot's of commonsense bipartisan proposals in here, including lifting the PWI cap from 15 - 20%, which could generate billions more investment in LIHTC.
Invoked, 84-6-1 with 1 Senator voting present: Motion to invoke cloture on the motion to proceed to Cal. #343, H.R.6644, Housing for the 21st Century Act.

Lifting the PWI cap would unlock billions more in Housing Credit investment - especially important after the expansion of the program signed into law last year. We are very glad this bill is heading to the floor next week and working to secure strong bipartisan support.
Next week, the House will vote on the Housing for the 21st Century Act, including a proposal to raise the public welfare investment cap from 15 to 20%. We urge the House to pass this legislation with the strongest bipartisan support possible.

Big step forward for affordable housing to close out the year. The proposal to lift the PWI cap in particular has the potential to generate billions more in affordable housing investment.

"Will leaders in Congress take action in 2025? If they do, the Affordable Housing Credit Improvement Act has the potential to do a lot of good, to expand the housing supply, spur the economy, and help address the affordability crisis plaguing America."

Significant and encouraging comments from Chairman Crapo on the possibility of the Housing Credit in the tax bill under negotiation now - and why it's so needed.
Chairman @MikeCrapo on affordable housing in the tax bill:
"Part of [the solution] is to provide extra funding for projects that help get access to capital into the housing industry, like the Housing Credit, which could be a phenomenal boost to getting the housing that we need."

❗️Great news! The judge presiding over our case - National Council of Nonprofits et al vs. Office of Management and Budget - GRANTED another Temporary Restraining Order against the admin’s ability to broadly halt federal grants and loans!!
The DOJ’s motion to dismiss was DENIED.

5 substantive mentions of housing affordability in tonight’s debate (all from @KamalaHarris). A record for a presidential election debate b/w 2 major party candidates. Thread:
Right out of the gate, first answer to first Q: “We have a shortage of housing. The cost of housing is too expensive for far too many people.” - @KamalaHarris #Debate2024
