July 10 (UPI) -- A bipartisan housing bill that swept the House and Senate is set to become law at midnight Friday if President Donald Trump doesn't veto it, and he said Friday morning on social media that he won't sign it.
The 21st Century Road to Housing Act was passed on June 29 by a wide margin of Democrats and Republicans in both chambers of Congress, but the president canceled a signing ceremony at the last minute and said he wouldn't sign it until Congress passed Trump's pet project, the SAVE America Act, which they don't have the support to do.
On Friday, he posted on Truth Social that he refuses to sign it.
"I will not sign the Housing Bill, which has been fully approved by Congress and sent to the White House, in PROTEST over the fact that the United States Senate is not capable of passing THE SAVE AMERICA ACT, which is polling at 97% with the Republican Party, and very high with the non-politician Dumocrats," he wrote.
