Senator Bernie Moreno (R-Ohio) wrote a new op-ed in Commonplace calling on Congress to pass the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, codifying President Trump’s executive action to put American homebuyers first.
Support passing the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act to codify executive action putting American homebuyers first in the housing market.
Occurrences
Evidence
The report says Sen. Bernie Moreno wrote that he would introduce legislation "to codify this into law" after Trump called for a ban on large institutional investors buying single-family houses.
Congress.gov identifies H.R. 6644 as an act "To increase the supply of housing in America" and lists the short title as the Housing for the 21st Century Act.
Congress.gov records House passage on February 9, 2026 by a 390-9 vote and lists the bill status as Passed House.
The Senate roll-call index lists Vote 182 as agreed to, 85-5, on the motion concerning H.R. 6644, a bill to increase housing supply.
The Senate vote page records Vote 182 on H.R. 6644 as Motion Agreed to, with YEAs 85, and lists Moreno (R-OH), Yea.
The report states H.R. 6644 was on President Trump's desk, that Trump had not signed it, and that Speaker Johnson said Trump would not veto it.
Assessments
Moreno promised to support passage of the housing legislation, and the record shows he acted in his federal Senate capacity during the same term by voting yea on the Senate motion for H.R. 6644. The evidence also indicates the bill cleared Congress and was on the President's desk by June 30, 2026. Because the promise was framed as supporting passage, not personally securing enactment or signing, Moreno's affirmative Senate vote and the bill's congressional passage satisfy the commitment in the same term.
