华盛顿讯——总统特朗普周三突然取消签署两党住房法案的决定，为他原定的国会山之行蒙上阴影。他原本计划在国会山与共和党参议员会面，而这些议员近来已对一系列打乱他们计划的举措愈发不满。
连日来，特朗普本应与共和党参议员共进午餐，宣传一项名为《拯救美国法案》的选举法案。共和党领导层多次强调，该法案毫无通过可能。他还计划在国会山期间签署这项旨在降低住房成本的法案。但在签字仪式数小时前，总统宣布他将“在我们通过迫切需要的《拯救美国法案》之前”取消签署。
总统当天早些时候表示，这项在中期选举前就关键议题取得重大两党突破的住房法案，与通过《拯救美国法案》相比“相形见绌”。
《拯救美国法案》将对选民登记和投票施加严格的新规则，以及其他多项条款。数月来，总统要求通过该法案的诉求一直令参议院共和党领导层头疼不已。民主党人强烈反对这项法案，认为它会剥夺数百万符合资格选民的投票权。少数共和党人也表示不会支持该法案，这意味着它无法达到参议院推进立法通常所需的60票门槛。
这一投票数字障碍并未阻止特朗普及其盟友推动参议院就此进行表决。总统、犹他州参议员迈克·李以及众议院的一些保守派人士，一直在向参议院多数党领袖约翰·图恩和其他共和党议员施压，要求废除议事阻挠规则以推动该法案通过。但共和党领导层已明确表示，目前没有足够票数修改参议院规则，也无法实施“口头阻挠议事”——这会让参议院的工作陷入停滞。
佛罗里达州共和党参议员里克·斯科特告诉记者，他邀请特朗普出席午餐会——他作为保守派参议院共和党指导委员会主席主持这场午餐会——是因为他“一直在与总统沟通，认为他会是个不错的受邀者”。他提到了包括选举法案在内的几个议题，预计该小组将围绕这些议题展开讨论。
“选民们仍然希望通过《拯救美国法案》，”斯科特说，“我们的计划是什么？”
总统此前也曾通过撤回对立法的支持向议员施压。今年早些时候，特朗普威胁称，除非国会通过《拯救美国法案》，否则他不会签署大多数其他法案。上周，特朗普表示，除非将选举法案纳入其中，否则他不会重新授权无 warrant 监视权限。
北卡罗来纳州共和党参议员汤姆·蒂利斯称，推动通过该选举法案是“浪费时间”。
“这是一种干扰，而且在本届国会中不可能通过，”蒂利斯周二对记者表示。
此次住房法案引发的动荡，为原本就被预计会充满争议的总统与参议院共和党人会面增添了新的变数。在总统做出最新举动之前，蒂利斯表示，他预计参议员们会“相当坦诚地”讨论立法事宜。南达科他州共和党参议员迈克·朗兹预计这将是一次“有益的会面”，不过他指出，他预计参议员们会“受到一番告诫”。
“但与此同时，我们能够向他传达我们的想法，而他在参加我们的会议时，总能很好地进行对话，”朗兹在总统取消住房法案签署仪式前说道，“交流将是双向的，不同议员会更自在地表达自己的立场，但明天肯定会是有趣的一天。”
朗兹明确表示，“目前我们在美国参议院没有足够票数通过该法案。”
“总统正在进行游说，他明确表明了自己认为此事有多重要。我是该法案的共同提案人，我也认为此事很重要，但票数不足，”朗兹说。
但这并未阻止总统敦促图恩争取党内同僚的支持。
“这就是领袖的职责所在，”特朗普周二对记者表示，“约翰是一位领袖，希望他能争取到足够的票数。”
朗兹表示“图恩说得没错，参议院的算术规则依然有效”，并补充道，“这并不意味着总统不会继续努力游说，争取一切机会争取不同议员的支持，但结果不会改变。”
近几周来，本届政府似乎与共和党多数派步调不一致，一系列时机不当的声明迫使参议院共和党人做出调整。上个月，司法部宣布设立“反武器化”基金，打乱了长期以来为移民执法机构争取的拨款计划。就在上周，总统打乱了参议院确认他提名的新任国家情报总监的计划——这本可解决因无 warrant 监视权限过期而陷入的僵局。
图恩周二在新闻发布会上表示，他与总统“有时会有意见分歧”，但补充道，“在关乎国家未来和美国人民的真正重要的问题上，我们一直保持团结。”
图恩表示，参议院共和党人面临的问题是，如何“在从现在到中期选举仅剩的时间里，最大限度地提高我们完成尽可能多工作的机会”。
“我希望，当我们作为一个大家庭、一个团队坐下来会面时，我们能够审视一些我们都希望共同努力推进、并在选举前完成的事项，”图恩说，“我相信，有些事情能够让我们留下政绩记录，让我们的候选人能够以此为竞选资本。”

Trump’s refusal to sign housing bill casts shadow over planned meeting with GOP senators
June 24, 2026 11:35 AM EDT / CBS News
Washington — President Trump’s abrupt decision to cancel his signing of a bipartisan housing bill on Wednesday has cast a shadow over his planned trip to the Capitol, where he is set to meet with GOP senators who have grown increasingly frustrated by a series of moves that have upended their plans.
For days, Mr. Trump has been scheduled to meet with Republican senators over lunch to push for an elections bill known as the SAVE America Act, which GOP leaders have repeatedly stressed has no chance of passing. He was also slated to sign the bill aimed at lowering housing costs into law while on the Hill. But hours before the signing ceremony, the president announced he was canceling the signing “until such time as we pass the desperately needed SAVE AMERICA ACT.”
The president said earlier in the day that the housing bill, which marked a major bipartisan breakthrough on a key issue ahead of the midterm elections, “pales in comparison” to passing the SAVE America Act.
The SAVE America Act would impose strict new rules for registering to vote and casting ballots, among other things. The president’s demand to pass it has been a headache for Senate GOP leaders for months. Democrats staunchly oppose it, arguing it would disenfranchise millions of eligible voters. A handful of Republicans have indicated that they also wouldn’t back it, meaning it would fall short of the 60-vote threshold typically needed to advance legislation in the Senate.
The math hasn’t stopped Mr. Trump and his allies from pushing for the Senate to take it up anyway. The president, Sen. Mike Lee of Utah and some conservatives in the House have pressured Senate Majority Leader John Thune and other Republicans to eliminate the filibuster to get the bill through. But the GOP leader has made clear that the votes aren’t there to change the Senate’s rules or execute a “talking filibuster,” which would grind the chamber’s work to a halt.
GOP Sen. Rick Scott of Florida told reporters he invited Mr. Trump to attend the lunch, which he runs as leader of the conservative Senate Republican Steering Committee, because he was “talking to the president and thought he would be a good invite.” He pointed to a handful of issues, including the elections bill, that he expected the group to focus on.
“The voters still want the SAVE America Act,” Scott said. “What’s our plan?”
The president has withheld his support for legislation to increase pressure on lawmakers before. Earlier this year, Mr. Trump threatened not to sign most other bills until Congress passes the SAVE America Act. Last week, Mr. Trump said he wouldn’t reauthorize a warrantless surveillance authority unless the elections bill was included.
GOP Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina called the push to pass the elections bill “a waste of time.”
“It’s a distraction and it’s not going to happen in this Congress,” Tillis told reporters Tuesday.
The upheaval over the housing measure adds a new dimension to what was already expected to be a contentious meeting between the president and Senate Republicans. Before the president’s latest move, Tillis said he expected senators would be “pretty candid” about the legislation. GOP Sen. Mike Rounds of South Dakota predicted that it would be a “good visit,” though he noted that he expects senators will “get a talking to.”
“But at the same time, we’ll be able to convey back to him, and he’s always been very good in a conversational way when he’s coming to our meetings,” Rounds said, speaking before the president canceled the housing bill signing. “It’ll feed back and forth, different members will feel more comfortable stating their positions, but tomorrow should be an interesting day.”
Rounds made clear that “we don’t have the votes in the United States Senate to pass it currently.”
“The president is lobbying, he’s making it very clear how important he thinks it is. I’m a cosponsor on the bill, I think it’s important, but the numbers are not there,” Rounds said.
But that hasn’t stopped the president from pushing Thune to win over the conference on the issue.
“That’s what being a leader’s about,” Mr. Trump told reporters Tuesday. “John is a leader and hopefully he can get the votes.”
Rounds said “Thune is correct when he says arithmetic still matters in the Senate,” adding that “it doesn’t mean that the president isn’t going to continue to try to lobby hard to get every opportunity to have the different votes, but the outcome will remain the same.”
The administration has appeared out of step with the GOP majority in recent weeks, with a number of poorly timed announcements that have forced Senate Republicans to adjust. Last month, the Justice Department’s announcement of an “anti-weaponization” fund upended long-sought funding for immigration enforcement agencies. And just last week, the president threw a wrench in the upper chamber’s plans to confirm his newest pick for director of national intelligence, which would have resolved an impasse over a lapsed warrantless surveillance program.
Thune said at a news conference Tuesday that he and the president “at times have differences of opinion,” but he added that “the issues that really matter to the future of this country and to the American people, we have been united on.”
Thune said the question before Senate Republicans is how they can “optimize the chance to get as much done as we can in the amount of time that we have left between now and the midterm elections.”
“I’m hoping that as we sit down and meet as a family, as a team, that we can look at some of the things that we all want to work together on to try to get done before this election,” Thune said. “And there are things that I believe will create a record of accomplishment that our candidates can run on.”
