Elizabeth Warren (D-Massachusetts) condemned President Donald Trump\u2019s decision to stall the signing of a bipartisan housing bill, saying his decision \u201cjust doesn\u2019t make any sense.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The 21st Century Road to Housing Act, cosponsored by Warren, passed with bipartisan support on Tuesday with support from 358 members of the House. Only 32 lawmakers voted against the bill. Although it doesn\u2019t address all of the issues affecting housing affordability, it would, among other things:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Ban corporate investors from buying up houses and renting them out instead of selling them for people to own;<\/li>\n<li>Encourage local governments to promote homebuilding in their communities, allocating federal dollars to places that build more houses;<\/li>\n<li>And streamline regulations to make homebuilding faster.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The White House had previously announced that Trump would sign the bill into law. However, on Truth Social, the president said he was canceling the signing ceremony, refusing to enact the legislation until the SAVE AMERICA Act passed instead \u2014 a GOP-proposed legislation that purports to address voter fraud, but in reality makes citizenship requirements to register to vote so restrictive that it has the potential to disenfranchise tens of millions of Americans.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cToday\u2019s Housing News Conference and Signing is hereby cancelled until such time as we pass the desperately needed SAVE AMERICA ACT, which I consider to be a National Emergency,\u201d Trump said in his post. <\/p>\n<p>Voting rights experts say that nothing in the bill would make elections more secure than they already are, and that the kind of voter fraud the president claims to be combating is very rare \u2014 certainly not widespread enough to affect electoral outcomes. <\/p>\n<p>After Trump announced that he was refusing to sign the housing bill into law, Warren, who is a member of the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs, appeared on <em>CNBC <\/em>to discuss the situation.<\/p>\n<p>When asked what she thought Trump was thinking in canceling the signing ceremony, Warren said she couldn\u2019t begin to know.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m sorry, if you\u2019re asking me to get into Donald Trump\u2019s head\u2026you need somebody else. I don\u2019t have any idea, it just doesn\u2019t make any sense,\u201d the senator said.<\/p>\n<p>Warren went on to call Trump\u2019s decision to delay signing the bill \u201ca complete indifference to the cost squeeze on American families.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/smartmovinghome.com\/?p=625\">New Documentary Highlights Reality of Gender and Sexual Diversity Across Nature<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Trump \u201creally doesn\u2019t care about American families, and doesn\u2019t care about the fact that prices are up,\u201d Warren said, adding:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Promises he made to lower costs on day one have not only come to nothing, prices are high on groceries, prices are higher on health care, prices are higher on virtually everything Americans buy because of Donald Trump\u2019s policies.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Frustration with the president\u2019s decision appeared to reach Republican circles, too. In an appearance on <em>CNN<\/em>, Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-South Dakota) indicated that he was troubled by Trump\u2019s moves to block the bill from becoming law.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s an affordability issue, and eventually I hope he finds a way to sign it,\u201d Thune said.<\/p>\n<p>However, Thune was careful not to agitate Trump, describing the choice to block the bill as \u201chis call to make.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Upset that the priorities of Congress weren\u2019t aligned with his own, Trump reportedly told Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-Louisiana) earlier this year in a private conversation that \u201cno one gives a shit about housing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That sentiment is demonstrably untrue. According to polling from the Bipartisan Policy Center conducted in May, 79 percent of voters said the issue of affordable housing is extremely or very important to them, with 8 in 10 Americans wanting legislation from Congress to address the issue.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Constitution, if Trump doesn\u2019t act on the bill within 10 days, it will automatically become law. Trump could double down on his demands for the SAVE AMERICA Act to be passed, threatening a veto of the bill unless it happens \u2014 a move that would be deeply unpopular, and potentially upset allies of his in Congress.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/smartmovinghome.com\/?p=623\">Mamdani Allies Defeat Establishment Democrats in NYC Congressional Primaries<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Trump said he wouldn\u2019t sign the bill until his restrictive voting legislation is passed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":628,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-629","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-interesting"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
