And as senators are speaking, as members of the House Republican Congress are speaking—
I'll take a few questions.
They don't seem to be aware that the president has just killed what was going to be their big achievement of the day.
Yeah, my reaction is, the president, when we go through the details of the bill, he's going to understand that it's a good product.
At one point, a member of Congress walks up to the signing ceremony, looks around, doesn't seem to know where anyone is, and reporters have to tell her that the signing ceremony is not happening.
And she leaves, and a bunch of reporters are still standing there, watching as this stage, which was supposed to be the platform for this major legislative achievement, this huge bipartisan breakthrough, is empty, and workers start taking it apart piece by piece.
And we're all left reeling, trying to figure out what's going on and what's going to happen next.
Well, the War Powers resolution certainly doesn't help.
But when the president announces in his social media posts that he's canceling the signing ceremony for the housing bill, he points to something else.
He points to the Save America Act.
The Save America Act is the president's long-sought election bill that comes out of his years of fixation on voter fraud and his debunked claims of voter fraud in American elections.
This bill would impose a national requirement that voters show identification at the polls.
It would require that they provide proof of citizenship when they register to vote.
And it would severely restrict voting by mail, which is something that many Republican senators oppose.
and is a major reason why Republicans have repeatedly told the president that they don't have the votes to pass this bill.
And so the bill has stalled in the Senate, but it seems like President Trump has realized that now he has some leverage.
He has this housing bill that everyone wants to become a law.
He has a signing ceremony that everyone wants to happen.
And so when he makes his social media post canceling the signing ceremony, he says he will not sign the housing bill until Congress passes the Safe America Act, which he says he considers to be a national emergency.
Or is something else going on?
