A sweeping housing bill sailed through the Senate on Monday and is expected to move quickly in the House early this week, potentially giving both parties a win on the issue of lowering home costs.
The Senate passed the bill with overwhelming bipartisan support, 85-5. An aide to Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., said the House could act on the legislation as soon as Tuesday under suspension of the rules, which requires backing from two-thirds of members present and voting for approval.
