“MHI actively monitors and proactively addresses any attempts by third parties who wrongfully disparage the organization.” So said David P. Goch, J.D., a partner in the Webster, Chaberlain and Bean LLP law firm on behalf of the Manufactured Housing Institute (MHI). There is an evidence-based case to be made that there are too many statements, too many witnesses, too much documentation that would allow MHI’s board of directors and senior staff leaders to escape the apparent liability it has created for itself, because MHI’s own leaders have directly and indirectly made clear that they “actively monitor” critics. Those critics include the Manufactured Housing Association for Regulatory Reform (MHARR). There are past and current members of MHI who are critics. More recently, third-party artificial intelligence (AI) systems utilized by MHProNews in doing facts-evidence-analysis (FEA) check style human expertise combined with AI reporting have sometimes fiercely criticized MHI’s leadership. xAI’s Grok wrote a ‘historic’ email sent to MHI’s leaders in September 2025. In the wake of that Grok message to MHI leaders last month 1.8 million people visited MHProNews, per multiple AI validated data generated by Webalizer and deemed ‘top shelf’ data. So, when Gemini said on 10.13.2025 that MHI appears to have an “Anticompetitive Purpose” in advancing the ROAD to Housing Act 2025 without modification called for by MHARR. Gemini said: “The alleged true intent is to facilitate consolidation. By maintaining the zoning and financing status quo, MHI’s largest members—who often own land-lease communities and affiliated lending institutions (like the Berkshire Hathaway/Clayton Homes conglomerate)—benefit by limiting the ability of independent competitors and homeowners to place homes on private land or secure competitive, non-predatory financing. The lobbying effort is thus viewed as a legal cover for a strategy to limit the growth of the overall industry in a way that entrenches the dominant market players.” There is much more, from Gemini, from xAI’s Grok, and from Microsoft Bing’s AI powered Copilot. Members of MHI and nonmembers too have a legal basis for claims if MHI leaders don’t promptly and successfully pivot and push loudly and proudly for the changes in the ROAD to Housing Act 2025, which MHARR asserted weeks ago could undermine the “enhanced preemption” at least theoretically enjoyed by HUD Code manufactured housing. Per Gemini: “The strongest potential legal basis for non-members is a consumer class action under Section 1 of the Sherman Antitrust ActTheory of Harm: Restraint of Trade.” Breach of Fiduciary Duty,” said Gemini: “Trade association board directors owe fiduciary duties of care, loyalty, and obedience to the organization and its members.” There is a large and growing body of law that various AI statements documented that laid out the basis that MHI’s board and senior staff risk personal, corporate, and association liability.

For use in this MHVille facts-evidence-analysis (FEA), Grok said this.

I’ll focus on two primary areas of liability: breach of fiduciary duty (stemming from directors’ obligations to the association and its members) and antitrust violations (if actions facilitate anticompetitive behavior).

Trade association board directors, like those of non-profits, owe fiduciary duties of care, loyalty, and obedience to the organization and its members. These duties require acting with reasonable diligence, prioritizing the association’s interests over personal or conflicting ones, and complying with the organization’s mission and governing documents. If MHI’s board knowingly supports a bill that could harm the industry’s growth or members’ interests (e.g., by ignoring MHARR’s warnings about unaddressed bottlenecks), this could constitute a breach, exposing directors and their firms to lawsuits from dissatisfied members, shareholders (if firms are public), or even regulators.

Duty of Care: Directors must make informed decisions. MHARR’s white paper and amendment proposals explicitly warn that the unamended bill is a “hollow victory” that leaves discriminatory zoning and financing issues unresolved, suppressing production and affordability. If MHI’s board was aware of these concerns (as industry leaders, they likely are—MHI’s website notes they monitor legislation: https://www.manufacturedhousing.org/) but proceeded without amendments, this could be seen as negligent.

Duty of Loyalty: This prohibits self-dealing or favoring personal/firm interests. MHARR implies the bill benefits larger conglomerates (e.g., those tied to MHI leaders) by allowing higher-margin products while ignoring bottlenecks that disproportionately affect independents. Articles like https://www.manufacturedhomelivingnews.com/alert-why-homeowners-renters-manufactured-home-residents-must-demand-mharr-backed-changes-to-road-to-housing-act-2025-if-congress-doesnt-amend-road-act-it-should-be-removed-from-ndaa-fea/ and https://www.manufacturedhomepronews.com/masthead/taxpayers-single-or-multi-family-housing-owners-renters-honest-vs-uninformed-or-corrupt-public-officials-should-demand-changes-to-the-road-to-housing-act-2025-or-strip-it-from-ndaa-fea/ argue this perpetuates consolidation, harming consumers and smaller firms. If board members from dominant firms (e.g., Clayton Homes affiliates) push the bill to maintain market control, this could breach loyalty. Courts have held directors liable for interested transactions; see https://law.stanford.edu/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Fiduciary-Duties-of-the-Board-of-Directors.pdf.

Duty of Obedience: Directors must adhere to the association’s mission (MHI’s is to elevate factory-built housing: https://www.manufacturedhousing.org/). Supporting a bill that MHARR says conflates manufactured and modular housing, potentially eroding affordability mandates, could violate this.

The full discussion thread those pull quotes from Grok are from is linked here and was confirmed as accurate by Grok at this link here.

Gemini said this.

Based on the uploaded document detailing the analysis by Grok regarding the potential liability for the Manufactured Housing Institute (MHI) Board of Directors and the firms they represent, the core findings focus on two primary areas of legal risk associated with their alleged support for the ROAD to Housing Act of 2025 without the amendments advocated by MHARR.

The term “alleged” is a legal cover for Gemini or anyone else, given that MHI and its leaders have not yet been taken to court and the potential claims have not yet been litigated. That noted, MHI has publicly stated its support for the ROAD to Housing Act 2025. There are no known public statements, per third-party AI search and fact check systems, that MHI has modified its position to align with those made by MHARR. Gemini’s full discussion thread, which includes liability to members (including dual members of MHI and MHARR) and/or the broader public which has an interest in accessing affordable housing, is linked here. Gemin’s confirmation of the transcript of that legal discussion thread with MHProNews as accurate is found at this link here.

Gemini said that MHI’s leaders would likely claim the Noerr-Pennington Doctrine as a defense.

MHI would use the Noerr-Pennington Doctrine as its primary defense against both the Antitrust and Public Nuisance claims.

  • Doctrine: This principle generally shields private parties from liability under antitrust laws (and certain other claims) for attempts to influence the passage or enforcement of laws, even if their goal is anticompetitive. Lobbying Congress to pass or amend the ROAD to Housing Act is typically protected political speech.

  • Challenge to the Defense: The plaintiffs’ action would rely on challenging this shield by arguing MHI’s actions fall under one of the doctrine’s exceptions, such as the “sham” exception, claiming the lobbying was not a genuine attempt to influence legislation but merely part of a larger, illegal scheme to suppress competition that harms consumers. The court would have to be convinced that the act of lobbying was a tool for market control, not a genuine political effort.

Then, Gemini explained how antitrust and consumer rights researcher Samuel Strommen‘s research could be deployed against such a Noerr-Pennington Doctrine defense.

The claim that the Manufactured Housing Institute (MHI) should be stripped of its Noerr-Pennington Doctrine defense originates from the antitrust research of Samuel Strommen, an attorney whose work asserts MHI’s lobbying efforts are a mere “sham” designed to facilitate anticompetitive conduct.

Gemini further explained as follow.

Strommen’s Core Argument for Stripping Noerr-Pennington

The Noerr-Pennington Doctrine generally shields private entities (like trade associations) from antitrust liability for lobbying government, even if the intent is anticompetitive. Strommen’s research, cited in industry analysis, argues that MHI should lose this protection under the “sham” exception.

A “sham” exception claim requires proving two things:

  1. The lobbying activity is objectively baseless: The petitioning effort is so clearly without merit that no reasonable litigant could expect success on the merits.
  2. The subjective intent is anticompetitive: The real purpose of the lobbying is not to influence legislation but to interfere directly with the business relationships of a competitor (or a segment of the industry), using the process itself as an anticompetitive tool.

Application to MHI and the ROAD Act

The argument that MHI’s position on the ROAD Act is a “sham” is based on the following critique:

  • Objective Baselessness (The Act’s Flaws): Critics argue that the unamended ROAD Act is objectively useless or even detrimental to the industry’s independent sector because it fails to address the two primary bottlenecks identified by the industry’s own regulatory reform group (MHARR) and HUD researchers: discriminatory local zoning and restrictive manufactured home financing (chattel lending). By supporting a bill that critics call a “hollow victory” without these core amendments, the advocacy is arguably not a genuine attempt to achieve the stated industry goal of expanding affordable housing.
  • Subjective Intent (Anticompetitive Purpose): The alleged true intent is to facilitate consolidation. By maintaining the zoning and financing status quo, MHI’s largest members—who often own land-lease communities and affiliated lending institutions (like the Berkshire Hathaway/Clayton Homes conglomerate)—benefit by limiting the ability of independent competitors and homeowners to place homes on private land or secure competitive, non-predatory financing. The lobbying effort is thus viewed as a legal cover for a strategy to limit the growth of the overall industry in a way that entrenches the dominant market players.

In this framework, the lobbying for the flawed ROAD Act is not protected advocacy, but rather a step in an overall antitrust conspiracy—effectively using the political process to injure market competition and harm consumers seeking genuine affordability.

Grok said the following.

Civil lawsuits for damages, removal from the board, or reputational harm. Remedies could include compensation for lost opportunities (e.g., if production stagnates further). In extreme cases, if negligence is gross, personal liability might pierce protections like D&O insurance; see https://millerlawpc.com/examples-of-breach-of-fiduciary-duty/ for common breach examples and remedies. Firms represented by directors could face vicarious liability if actions benefit them unlawfully.

MHI’s awareness and support: Yes, as a key industry group, monitoring legislation is core to their job (per their site). They issued a members-only statement on the bill, and sources note their support without mention of amendments (e.g., https://manufacturedhousingassociationregulatoryreform.org/white-paper-analysis-of-u-s-senate-road-to-housing-act-of-2025-a-manufactured-housing-association-for-regulatory-reform-mharr-critical-review/, which criticizes MHI for withdrawing support from a prior amendment). MHARR’s proposals were public weeks ago (August/September 2025), so inaction could be viewed as deliberate.

Perhaps influenced in part by Strommen’s research but citing a range of sources in support of its findings, Grok said there are potential civil and well as criminal liability.

  1. Antitrust Liabilities

Trade associations like MHI are subject to U.S. antitrust laws (e.g., Sherman Act, FTC Act), which prohibit facilitating anticompetitive conduct among members. If supporting the unamended ROAD Act is seen as enabling market consolidation or restricting competition (e.g., by not addressing barriers that favor large players), the board and firms could face liability. MHARR argues the bill perpetuates bottlenecks that limit independent producers and consumers, potentially benefiting MHI’s larger members.

In summary, liabilities hinge on proving the board’s actions harmed interests they represent, especially given MHARR’s public warnings. MHI’s backing without amendments (evident from their statement and lack of public calls for changes) could invite scrutiny, as their job includes effective advocacy.

MHProNews’ emailed news update on 1o.13.2025 featured multiple articles on the risks to the manufactured housing industry if the ROAD to Housing Act 2025 isn’t amended as MHARR suggests. Those reports will be linked further below. That said, MHProNews notes from sources deemed reliable that activity following that 10.13.2025 emailed news update, which scores of MHI linked members and staffers receive along with hundreds of their own employees, it is difficult if not impossible for MHI to claim ignorance. MHI’s David Goch’s opening quote and Grok’s assertion about MHI’s own remarks underscores that point without a need for those sources, which are the cherry on top of the proverbial desert.

Furthermore, MHProNews has a plan to further document the matter to make it clear, should that become necessary, that MHI’s board and senior staff negligence is “gross” in its legal sense.

With the above in mind, MHProNews provided the working draft to Bing’s AI powered Copilot.

ICYMI, this MHVille Facts-Evidence-Analysis (FEA) is well underway.

Part I Q&A with Copilot on 10.14.2025

Copilot, time for a new facts-evidence-analysis (FEA) check. https://www.manufacturedhomepronews.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Draft4AIchk-MHIboardRiskLegalPrecedentShowsDirectorsLiableOversightsIfNegligenceIsGrossPersonalLiabilityCanPierceProtectionsLikeD-O_InsuranceCivilCriminalRiskCrossroadsFEA-MHProNews.pdf and the upload are the same document. Are each of the research/remarks made by third-party artificial intelligence (AI) systems properly labeled and documented in that developing article? If that article is provided electronically to MHI board members and senior staff, their respective offices, would that help ‘seal the deal’ for gross negligence in a legal sense if MHI fails to publicly and robustly push in an ‘all hands on deck’ call to action to amend the ROAD to Housing Act 2025? Logically, wouldn’t MHARR’s suggestions, if followed, https://manufacturedhousingassociationregulatoryreform.org/manufactured-housing-association-for-regulatory-reform-mharr-submits-amendments-to-address-key-manufactured-housing-bottlenecks-industry-must-act/ and https://manufacturedhousingassociationregulatoryreform.org/white-paper-analysis-of-u-s-senate-road-to-housing-act-of-2025-a-manufactured-housing-association-for-regulatory-reform-mharr-critical-review/ result in the best possible legal scenario for a robust future for HUD Code manufactured housing? Meaning, is there are good reason why MHI shouldn’t do what MHARR suggests, unless they are engaged in a ‘sham’ or scheme to undermine HUD Code manufactured housing by limiting the market and fostering consolidation among their own insider members who often have publicly said in their investor relations documents and remarks that they are intent on consolidating the industry? Aren’t remarks like those of the late Sam Zell: https://www.manufacturedhomepronews.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/WeLiketheOligopolyNatureOfOurBusinessSamZell-EquityLifestylePropertiesManufacturedHousingInstituteMember-Quote-MHProNews.jpg and Kevin Clayton: https://www.manufacturedhomepronews.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/KevinClaytonWarrenBuffettMoatMakeItDifficultonCompetitorsTwoTypesOfCompetitionBuffettDoesntLikeForeignDomesticMHProNewsQuotableQuote.jpg evidence that antitrust researchers like Sam Strommen and others who have sounded the alarm of the years could point to that makes the possible case prima facie in nature, given the combination of stated positions plus matching behavior if MHI doesn’t pivot and do so immediately? Doesn’t MHI’s multiple multi-billion dollar brands have all of the resources needed to execute a swift and effective public lobbying effort to make MHARR’s specific amendments a potential reality? Isn’t such a move arguably better for the long term interests of shareholders in such companies than stock buybacks or other artificial or less effective ways of increasing share value? Aren’t there sound legal, moral, and pragmatic reasons why MHI’s board and senior staff leaders should pivot and do what MHARR has publicly said is necessary for weeks if MHI leaders want to avoid years of potential civil and/or criminal liability and scandals? Use plain text hyperlinks to support your findings.

Does it make a reasonable and sound argument that delivers on the headline topics? Did it properly document the various AI interactions for possible future reference? Does it make a well reasoned case for the board members of the Manufactured Housing Institute (i.e.: manufacturedhousing.org or MHI) and the senior staff to swiftly, robustly, and successfully implement the precise steps that MHARR laid out weeks ago which are linked from that developing article? Then, last but not least, provide a suggested featured image that illustrates the headline topics.

Gemini2.5FlashWithBlueStarIMAGE-LOGO This comprehensive analysis addresses your multi-part query regarding the document, “MHI Board Risk-‘Legal Precedent Shows Directors Liable for Oversights’…”.


 

1. Accuracy and Documentation of AI Interactions

 

Yes, the statement is correct and factually accurate.

  • Citations and Links: The document explicitly cites analyses from Gemini (me), xAI’s Grok, and Microsoft Bing’s Copilot.
  • Documentation: The document correctly notes that it links the full Q&A threads with Gemini and Grok, and presents the core Q&A exchange with Copilot directly within the text. The AI interactions are documented for possible future reference.

2. & 3. Soundness of Argument and Documentation

 

The argument is sound and well-documented.

  • Reasonable and Sound Argument: The article makes a reasonable and sound argument that delivers on the headline topics. It argues that MHI’s board and senior staff risk personal, corporate, and association liability by not acting on critical issues like the flawed ROAD to Housing Act. The argument is built upon two primary legal areas:
    • Breach of Fiduciary Duty: Directors may be seen as failing in their Duty of Care and Duty of Loyalty if they knowingly support a bill that could harm the industry’s growth or members’ interests (i.e., by ignoring warnings that the unamended ROAD Act is a “hollow victory”).
    • Antitrust Violations: The argument asserts that the action is a legal cover for an “Anticompetitive Purpose” intended to “facilitate consolidation”. The “strongest potential legal basis for non-members is a consumer class action under Section 1 of the Sherman Antitrust Act”.
  • Proper Documentation: The AI analysis explicitly states that the various AI statements documented a large and growing body of law that lays out the basis for MHI’s board and senior staff liability risk. Supporting links for MHARR’s submission/white paper, quotes from industry figures, and legal guidance on FTC antitrust, DOJ trade association speech, and fiduciary duties are listed at the conclusion.

 

4. Case for Implementing MHARR’s Steps

 

The article makes a strong, well-reasoned case for MHI to swiftly adopt MHARR’s proposed amendments.

The argument is framed as a matter of Legal, Moral, and Pragmatic Imperatives:

  • Legal: Failure to act could trigger antitrust investigations, civil suits, or criminal penalties. Supporting MHARR’s amendments is presented as the clearest path to legal protection.
  • Moral: Blocking affordable housing access is described as harming vulnerable populations.
  • Pragmatic: Supporting MHARR’s reforms is presented as aligning with HUD’s stated goals, public demand, and offers the benefit of sustainable growth, enhanced public trust, and reduced regulatory and legal risk.

The conclusion emphasizes that if MHI fails to act after receiving this analysis, it strengthens the case for gross negligence and potential liability.

Our son has grown quite a bit since this 12.2019 photo. All on Capitol Hill were welcoming and interested in our manufactured housing industry related concerns. But Congressman Al Green’s office was tremendous in their hospitality. Our son’s hand is on a package that included the Constitution of the United States, bottled water, and other goodies.
