Now, I look forward to working with our Senate colleagues to get this legislation across the finish line and deliver relief to the American people.
Work with Senate colleagues to get the bipartisan housing legislation across the finish line and deliver relief to the American people.
Occurrences
Evidence
The House of Representatives passed a bipartisan amendment to the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act; the release says Ranking Member Cleaver voted in favor and that the amendment "will now move to the U.S. Senate for consideration."
The House Financial Services Committee said it unveiled the text of a resolution to bring up H.R. 6644, "which would amend the Senate-passed version of the bill."
Assessments
Cleaver materially advanced the bipartisan housing legislation in the House during his current federal term, including voting for a House-passed amendment/package and participating in bicameral movement around the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act. However, the promise was to get the legislation across the finish line and deliver relief, and the supplied evidence shows the package still required Senate consideration or final enactment as of May 20, 2026. That supports partial credit for serious same-term legislative progress, not full delivery.
