Instead, MHI urged the MHCC to draft specific language into the HUD Code imposing energy standards that adhere to the realities of manufactured home construction instead of adopting and incorporating wholesale the Energy Rule by reference to the exclusion of existing HUD Code provisions. This meeting of the MHCC, and another meeting scheduled in November, are a result of MHI\u2019s ongoing strong advocacy efforts and part of MHI\u2019s multipronged strategy to stop the DOE standards for manufactured housing from being implemented until properly incorporated into the HUD Code to ensure feasibility and cost effectiveness.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.manufacturedhomepronews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/ManufacturedHousingInstituter10.12.22-MHI-HUD-MHCC-Letter-about-DOE-Energy-Rule-MastheadMHProNews.pdf\">Click here<\/a>\u00a0to read the letter.<\/p>\n<p>MHI continues to argue to the Administration and Congress that the DOE did not abide by its statutory requirements to consult with HUD or implement standards that are cost effective when considering the new energy efficiency standards and that there are substantial flaws in DOE\u2019s cost analysis. MHI provided its own cost analysis to DOE and proposed revisions to the standards, including an incremental approach to increased energy efficiency that balanced efficiency with affordability and took into account the specific design and construction standards of today\u2019s manufactured homes. MHI will be an active participant in this week\u2019s meeting providing MHCC members with recommendations and data analysis to ensure any proposed changes to the energy efficiency standards in the HUD Code do not harm consumers looking to purchase manufactured homes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><u>DOE\u2019S MANUFACTURED HOUSING ENERGY EFFICIENCY STANDARDS RULE UPDATE<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Need to Continue to Push for More Cosponsors on H.R. 7651<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Exerting pressure on the Administration through Congress is a critical part of MHI\u2019s multipronged strategy to stop the Department of Energy (DOE) standards for manufactured housing from being implemented until properly incorporated into the HUD Code to ensure feasibility and cost effectiveness. H.R. 7651, \u201cThe Manufactured Housing Affordability and Energy Efficiency Act\u201d introduced by Representatives Kustoff (TN-08) and Bucshon (IN-08), ensures the DOE\u2019s final rule on new manufactured housing energy efficiency standards does not harm manufactured homeownership affordability.

Current cosponsors include Representatives\u00a0Mary Miller (IL-15), Byron Donalds (FL-19), Michael Guest (MS-03), Morgan Griffith (VA-09), Andy Barr (KY-06), Tim Burchett (TN-02), Randy Feenstra (IA-04),\u00a0Glenn Thompson (PA-15), Ken Calvert (CA-42), Ben Cline (VA-06),\u00a0Jake LaTurner (KS-02), Tom Emmer (MN-6) and Diana Harshbarger (TN-01).<\/p>\n<p>H.R. 7651 requires that before any new DOE energy standards can become effective or be enforced: (1) DOE must fully consult with HUD, (2) DOE must document that the rule is cost-effective based on the impact of homebuyer price and cost increases, (3) the standards must fully take into consideration manufactured housing construction methods and transportation requirements, and (4) the standards must be adopted by HUD as part of the HUD Code.<\/p>\n<p>There are two ways to take action:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><u>Share MHI\u2019s Grassroots Call for Action.<\/u><u>Click here<\/u>\u00a0for a link to MHI\u2019s grassroots Call to Action, which is directed to the members of the House of Representatives urging them to cosponsor H.R. 7651, the \u201cManufactured Housing Affordability and Energy Efficiency Act\u201d.

This sentiment is driven largely by the affordability of factory-built housing, though many Gen Z consumers also report prioritizing the use of renewable materials and sustainable building practices as important features of manufactured homes. These attitudes reflect a shift among younger consumers indicating an openness to manufactured housing as a homebuying option that has moved past traditional stigmas surrounding manufactured homes. These findings are consistent with MHI\u2019s internal research that has found that the affordability of manufactured housing presents an opportunity for Millennials and Gen Z to enter into the\u00a0homebuying\u00a0market. Further this has been validated by MHI\u2019s finding that Millennials\u00a0and\u00a0Gen\u00a0Z\u00a0are\u00a0actively\u00a0engaged\u00a0in\u00a0the\u00a0manufactured\u00a0housing\u00a0market\u00a0as\u00a0evidenced\u00a0by the share of manufactured home mortgages they hold relative to other generational cohorts.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vmf.com\/resources\/news\/gen-z-looks-to-off-site-built-housing-for-beautiful-energy-efficient-homeownership\/\">Click here<\/a>\u00a0for more information about the survey.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Cavco Industries Opens New Homebuilding Facility in North Carolina<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Cavco Industries has opened its newest manufacturing facility in Hamlet, North Carolina.

Yet, paradoxically, MHI\u2019s own Federated States Newsletter demonstrates that <em>trusting HUD<\/em> could also be flawed. After all, HUD is already <em>preparing<\/em> to implement the DOE plan. Once again, it is MHARR that sounds the alarm, while MHI postures, preens, palters, and pretends that all is well with their supposedly \u201cstrong\u201d advocacy.<\/p>\n<p>To dot the i on those points, here is part of the language of HR 7651, Section 2 says: \u201cClarification of HUD final authority over manufactured housing energy efficiency standards.\u201d One has to blindly trust MHI whose own newsletter, properly understood, demonstrates why the entire HR 7651 &#8220;advocacy&#8221; is a proverbial <em>fool&#8217;s errand.<\/em> Even if it magically passed, HUD&#8217;s leadership is already proving to be as blindly &#8216;green&#8217; as is DOE&#8217;s leadership is at this time.<\/p>\n<p>Said MHARR on 10.20.2022: \u201cThe statutory Manufactured Housing Consensus Committee (MHCC) held the first of two scheduled meetings in Washington, D.C. on October 18-20, 2022, to address the incorporation and supposed \u201calignment\u201d of U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) \u201cenergy conservation\u201d standards for manufactured homes with the HUD Federal Manufactured Housing Construction and Safety Standards (FMHCSS). A second meeting is currently scheduled for mid-November.<\/p>\n<p>The so-called \u201calignment\u201d of the HUD and DOE energy standards for manufactured housing,\u00a0<u>which currently differ<\/u>, was noted by HUD in the Federal Register notice for the meetings, which stated: \u201cgiven that manufacturers have to comply with the Department of Energy\u2019s Energy Conservation Standards for Manufactured Housing and the [FMHCSS],\u201d the Department has deemed it \u201cimperative to promptly proceed with rulemaking to align\u201d the FMHCSS with the DOE standards.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>So, if MHI\u2019s advocacy was truly as strong as MHI claims, wouldn\u2019t they have already stopped the DOE energy rule?

The other plug was for Cavco Industries, which recently <a href=\"https:\/\/www.manufacturedhomepronews.com\/cavco-quarterly-results-facts-and-trends-include-sec-suit-update-manufactured-home-production-volumes-financial-figures-corporate-data-and-manufactured-housing-analysis\/\">was fined some $1.5 million dollars by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)<\/a>, a news item that MHI conveniently missed sharing.<\/p>\n<p>But also missing from MHI was any mention of specific \u201cL\u201d words.

MHI\u2019s CEO Gooch has claimed they want that provision enforced. Seriously? If so, where is the lawsuit either by MHI and\/or in a joint effort with MHARR?<\/p>\n<p>MHARR has offered to sue to stop the DOE energy rule so long as MHI caries its fair share of the load. MHI remains publicly silent on that too.

of the industry\u2019s so-called trade media is apparently in the pockets of MHI\u2019s dominating brands, so they are routinely silent on such matters. If they mention MHARR\u2019s efforts at all, they might do so in a flip-flop or outright disparaging way. The only one that allows MHARR to speak in their own voice, so to speak, by running a MHARR media release is Kurt Kelley\u2019s quarterly digital publication, MHR. But a quarterly is simply insufficient to move the needle on serious issues.<\/p>\n<p>The American Dream is being threatened by insiders in manufactured housing. The American Dream is also being threatened by other billionaires and deep pocketed corporations too. So says several voices across the left right spectrum, some of whom have specifically pointed to the tragic occurrences in MHVille as examples.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.manufacturedhomepronews.com\/13-trillion-in-u-s-wealth-lost-hit-401ks-retirees-middle-class-for-suburbanites-making-100000-nations-economy-not-ok-per-realclear-gaslighting-plus\/<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_18361\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-18361\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.manufacturedhomelivingnews.com\/ripping-off-the-american-dream-feudalism-rising-warren-buffett-bill-gates-george-soros-other-billionaires-and-rigged-system\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-18361\" src=\"https:\/\/www.manufacturedhomepronews.com\/masthead\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/RippingOffAmericanDreamFeudalismRisingWarrenBuffettBillGatesGeorgeSorosJeffBezosMarkZuckerbergPhotosBillionairesRiggedSystemMHLivingNews.png\" alt=\"RippingOffAmericanDreamFeudalismRisingWarrenBuffettBillGatesGeorgeSorosJeffBezosMarkZuckerbergPhotosBillionairesRiggedSystemMHLivingNews\" width=\"600\" height=\"315\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.manufacturedhomepronews.com\/masthead\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/RippingOffAmericanDreamFeudalismRisingWarrenBuffettBillGatesGeorgeSorosJeffBezosMarkZuckerbergPhotosBillionairesRiggedSystemMHLivingNews.png 600w, https:\/\/www.manufacturedhomepronews.com\/masthead\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/RippingOffAmericanDreamFeudalismRisingWarrenBuffettBillGatesGeorgeSorosJeffBezosMarkZuckerbergPhotosBillionairesRiggedSystemMHLivingNews-575x302.png 575w, https:\/\/www.manufacturedhomepronews.com\/masthead\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/RippingOffAmericanDreamFeudalismRisingWarrenBuffettBillGatesGeorgeSorosJeffBezosMarkZuckerbergPhotosBillionairesRiggedSystemMHLivingNews-150x79.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-18361\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.manufacturedhomelivingnews.com\/ripping-off-the-american-dream-feudalism-rising-warren-buffett-bill-gates-george-soros-other-billionaires-and-rigged-system\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i> https:\/\/www.manufacturedhomelivingnews.com\/ripping-off-the-american-dream-feudalism-rising-warren-buffett-bill-gates-george-soros-other-billionaires-and-rigged-system\/ <\/i><\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>https:\/\/www.manufacturedhomepronews.com\/shock-green-agenda-poll-gates-msn-global-recession-driven-by-higher-rates-in-u-s-abroad-housing-stocks-reeling-orwellian-inf\/<\/p>\n<p>But all is not lost.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout history, God has raised up sometimes unlikely champions who have fought the good fight.
