President Donald Trump announced the cancellation of the signing of the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, instead prioritizing the passage of the Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act. The SAVE Act includes Trump’s long-sought voter ID and citizenship verification measures.
SAVE Act Details
The SAVE Act has faced obstacles and pushback, but Trump and administration officials have emphasized its importance. House Speaker Mike Johnson expressed agreement with Trump’s decision and hopes to advance a similar election-integrity proposal through the budget reconciliation process.
The housing package, which was passed by House lawmakers, aims to expand the supply of homes and lower costs. However, Trump’s focus on the SAVE Act has put the housing bill on hold. The president has called the housing act an ‘Elizabeth Pocahontas Warren centric housing bill’ and stated that it is ‘of minor importance’ compared to the SAVE Act.
