## Resource

A landmark housing bill, the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, just became law—despite President Trump’s refusal to sign it, letting it pass by default after a 10-day hold. Designed to crack down on corporate homebuying, ease mortgage access for low-income families, and speed up construction nationwide, it’s hailed as the biggest housing reform in three decades. While Trump dismissed it as unimportant compared to his election security agenda, the bill sailed through Congress with overwhelming bipartisan support, revealing a stark contrast between political priorities and public need. Critics say it’s just the beginning, but industry and advocates see it as a vital step toward solving America’s housing shortage and making homeownership more attainable.
