The House passed H.R. 6644, the Housing for the 21st Century Act, by a vote of 390-9. The clerk page identifies the bill as "Housing for the 21st Century Act" and shows the motion to suspend the rules and pass, as amended, was agreed to.

Bynum's housing proposal advanced through the House, showing legislative action beyond introduction, though this is not enactment into law.

The same housing bill also cleared the Senate, further confirming serious legislative progress toward the promise, but not final delivery without enactment.

AP reported that the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act won bipartisan approval from Congress this week, but hit a major roadblock in becoming law when President Donald Trump canceled the signing ceremony and said he would not sign the measure until Congress passes separate voter-citizenship legislation.

The housing package had cleared Congress but was still blocked from becoming law at the time of the report, so it supports an unresolved status rather than full delivery.

MarketWatch reported on June 26, 2026 that the bipartisan housing package appeared close to becoming U.S. law again after Trump canceled the signing ceremony, and that House Speaker Mike Johnson planned to send the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act to the president on Monday.

This is a recent sign that the housing measure remained in motion but was not yet enacted, reinforcing that the promise was still unresolved as of the lookback window.

Assessments

unresolved same_term A for effort

Bynum introduced legislation aimed at reducing housing-construction red tape, and the House and Senate both advanced the housing package, showing substantial progress. However, the evidence stops short of enactment into law, so the promised outcome was not yet fully delivered as of the available record.

never same_term A for effort

Bynum made a concrete same-term legislative effort by introducing housing legislation aimed at cutting red tape and speeding permitting, and the bill advanced through both the House and Senate. However, the evidence does not show final enactment into law or actual removal of regulatory barriers for housing construction. Because the promised outcome was not delivered despite serious legislative effort, this should be marked never with an effort badge.
