Don't really understand the entire premise here. Trump isn't gonna veto it (presumably). They passed it. It will become law . President Donald Trump said Friday that he will not sign a bipartisan housing bill in protest of Republicans’ inability to advance separate elections overhaul legislation, dealing a major political blow to vulnerable lawmakers in his own party.
