U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson announced that he will transmit a bipartisan housing affordability bill to President Donald Trump on Monday. Johnson stated on Fox News that the bill has passed both chambers of Congress and, upon sending it to the President, it will become law.
This development follows President Trump's abrupt cancellation of a previous signing ceremony for the bill. Johnson indicated that he had a "very productive meeting" with Trump at the White House regarding legislative matters. The transmission of the bill to the White House initiates a 10-day period for the President to either sign or veto it, after which it would automatically become law. The bill passed both the Senate and House with veto-proof majorities.
