A housing bill is set to become law without the president's endorsement. This decision comes after Congress approved the measure. The president had a deadline to act on the bill, but chose not to sign it.

The reason for this decision is related to another issue. Progress on a separate matter has been slow, and this is cited as the reason for not signing the housing bill.

Further details on this development are available from the Associated Press, as reported by the Odessa American.
