The Art of Obstruction: Trump's Housing Bill Gamble President Donald Trump has announced he won't sign the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, a bipartisan bill aimed at making homeownership more affordable.
This decision is no surprise, given Trump's history of prioritizing his own agenda over the needs of Americans. The timing is striking, especially with home prices reaching an all time high last month.
The median price of an existing home sold in June was $440,600. This bill would have lowered costs for homebuyers and reined in institutional investors, but Trump has opted to hold the housing industry hostage instead.
