Colorado lawmaker says president is holding housing affordability bill hostage

The 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, passed by the House and Senate, remains pending as President Donald Trump canceled its signing, linking it to his demand for the SAVE AMERICA Act. Colorado Rep. Brittany Pettersen criticized Trump for using the housing legislation as leverage to advance voting restrictions, calling the move reckless and prioritizing election influence over addressing a housing crisis that burdens 51% of renters and 21% of homeowners in Colorado.
