tl;dr

President Donald Trump canceled a planned signing of a bipartisan housing measure, saying he would not sign it until Congress passed the SAVE America Act, a voter-identification and citizenship-proof bill. The move heightened tensions with Senate Republicans, including Majority Leader John Thune, who has said the voting bill lacks enough support to pass.
