WASHINGTON — President Trump abruptly nixed a signing ceremony for a massive bipartisan housing package that passed Congress Tuesday, demanding that Republicans must move on a voter ID bill first.
“Today’s 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. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” the president posted on Truth Social, two hours before it was scheduled.
Trump is still planning on meeting with Republican senators later Wednesday to discuss the SAVE Act, which requires voters to provide proof of citizenship when registering, among other provisions.
