On the National Radar:
Trump Refuses to Sign ROAD Act; It Could Become Law Anyways
Congress passes ROAD Act: On Tuesday, the House passed the ROAD to Housing Act 358-32, one day after the Senate passed it 85-5. This is huge. After almost a year of negotiations, Congress just passed the most substantial housing reform bill in decades.
Trump refuses to sign: On Wednesday, President Trump refused to sign the bill, vowing to stonewall the legislation until the SAVE America Act is passed. However, Punchbowl News is reporting that House Speaker Johnson will present the ROAD Act to Trump on Monday, kicking off a 10-day window for him to either sign or veto the bill. If he does neither, the bill becomes law anyways.
