21st Century ROAD to Housing Act Becomes Law, Including Ban on Fed-Issued CBDC

The 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act has taken effect in the United States, including provisions that prohibit the Federal Reserve from issuing a central bank digital currency (CBDC). According to Odaily, U.S. President Donald Trump had previously said he would not sign the housing bill unless Congress first passed the SAVE AMERICA ACT, which would require proof of citizenship identification for voting in federal elections. After the bill was sent to the White House, Trump did not sign or veto it within 10 days, and it automatically became law under the U.S. Constitution. The legislation previously passed the Senate by a vote of 85-5 and the House of Representatives by 358-32. In addition to the CBDC-related restriction, the act includes housing policy provisions.
