What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Donald Trump did not sign the 21st Century Road to Housing Act, which was passed in July. The legislation changes rules regarding Community Development Block Grants, removes the chassis requirement for manufactured homes, and raises the public welfare investment cap for banks from 15% to 20%.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The Act signals to the investment community that capital is available to develop affordable housing. Although not a spending bill, it sets the stage for future appropriations and places the responsibility for zoning changes on state and local governments.
