President Donald Trump says he will not sign a bipartisan housing affordability bill, according to multiple outlets. The measure is still on track to become law on Friday night even without the president’s signature, because of the timeline for presidential action. Under the relevant process described by the outlets, Trump has a limited window—reported as 10 days—to issue a veto to stop the legislation. If he does not veto the bill within that period, it can be enacted automatically once the deadline passes. CBS News reports that Trump does not clearly indicate on Friday whether he will veto the legislation. PBS NewsHour similarly frames the situation as the bill being poised to take effect without Trump’s signature, referencing the available time to issue a veto. ABC News also states that the housing bill can still become law overnight Friday, despite Trump’s statement that he will not sign it, and notes that presidential signature is not required if no veto is issued within the established timeframe.
