Today’s Big Story

Housing Bill Becomes Law

• A bipartisan housing bill became law yesterday after President Donald Trump allowed it to take effect without his signature. Trump said he withheld his signature to protest the Senate's failure to pass a separate voter ID bill, even though the housing measure received overwhelming bipartisan support.

• The new law aims to increase home construction by reducing federal regulations, streamlining environmental reviews, and limiting corporate purchases of single-family homes. The legislation passed the Senate 85-5 and the House 358-32, making it one of the broadest federal housing reforms in decades.

• Supporters say the law could help ease a nationwide housing shortage that White House economists have estimated at 10 million homes. However, it does not address other affordability challenges such as labor shortages, rising insurance costs, and stagnant wage growth.
