Speaker Mike Johnson said President Trump would not veto a bipartisan Senate-approved housing bill, despite Trump’s demand that lawmakers first pass the SAVE America Act. If Trump takes no action, the housing bill could become law automatically on July 10.
Johnson told USA Today that Trump had no plans to veto the housing bill, which the Senate approved the previous week. Trump has said he would not sign it unless lawmakers first pass the SAVE America Act, and called the housing bill “a yawn.” If Trump takes no action, the bill could become law automatically on July 10.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren, a co-sponsor of the housing bill, said she still did not know Trump’s plans. She described the bill as a way to build more housing, lower costs and prevent private equity from buying homes, and criticized Trump’s position.
