TAMPA, Fla. —
- On Wednesday, President Trump announced that he would not sign the Affordable Housing Bill until the Senate passes his SAVE America Act.
- The Housing Bill, which passed both houses of Congress with enormous bipartisan support, encourages new home construction, forbids large investors from buying most of them, and incentivizes local governments to optimize zoning regulations to make construction easier.
- Tampa Bay 28 anchor Paul LaGrone spoke with Vincent Arcuri, a local real estate expert, about changes that could take place if this housing bill becomes law, could it spark home inventory, and in turn make homes more affordable.
