Horsford: Affordable Housing Is Coming to Nevada, With or Without Trump

July 10, 2026 Press Release WASHINGTON D.C. – Congressman Steven Horsford (NV-04) issued the following statement in response to the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act becoming law, despite President Trump’s refusal to sign the historic package. “Today, affordable housing won. The 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act will become the largest federal housing package passed in decades, not because President Trump signed it, but because the American people demanded action and Congress delivered with overwhelming bipartisan majority. “This legislation passed the Senate 85-5 and the House 358-32. Instead of celebrating a historic victory for working families, President Trump tried to hold affordable housing hostage to advance an unrelated voter suppression agenda. “Here in Nevada, we know exactly why this bill matters.  Las Vegas ranks among the nation’s leaders in investor-owned housing. For years, Wall Street investors and corporate landlords have priced out first-time homebuyers and made it harder for working families to find an affordable place to live. “Nevadans did the hard work of organizing, testifying, and demanding change. With their work, I was able to introduce the HOME Act, and they are the reason I kept pushing until their priorities were included in this bipartisan package. Housing should never be used as political leverage. It’s a basic foundation for economic security. Affordable housing is coming to Nevada - with or without President Trump’s signature.” ### Issues : Economy
