The National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) is deemed ‘must pass’ legislation by many Congressional and other U.S. leaders. That is why approved legislative attachments or amendments to the NDAA are important. Because when a bill ‘must pass’ the attachments and amendments are thereby shepherd through the often ugly and partisan legislative process along with the main bill. Artificial Intelligence (AI) linked legislation (Part I) and the ROAD to Housing Act (Part III) are two of the issues that lobbyists or advocates in those arenas have been striving to shoehorn into the NDAA. This report will consider two brief and distinct headline topic news items provided by The Center Square to MHProNews in Part I and Part II. The relevance of those news items to MHVille and the pending ROAD to Housing Act will be provided and unpacked in Part III. Included in Part III will be a teaser on antitrust that will tee up a planned future report on MHProNews.

According to an FEA check by Gemini (see Part III #5 for context and details) is the following.

No other directly involved manufactured housing source or fresh mainstream report was found to cover this exact, broad mashup of topics.

Debate over AI heats up as GOP scraps moratorium in annual Defense bill

(The Center Square) – Lawmakers are becoming increasingly concerned about the rapid expansion of AI technology and its impacts on cybersecurity, the power grid, and online safety.

While the Trump administration and some congressional Republicans like U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and Rep. Brett Guthrie, R-Ky., are pushing for a federal moratorium on state AI regulations, most other members of Congress are calling for a more prudential approach.

Democrats on the House Energy and Commerce committee asked the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission in a Friday letter to ensure that AI data center growth does not raise Americans’ energy bills.

The lawmakers urged FERC “to prioritize holding American families harmless from the costs imposed upon the nation’s grid by large loads, including data centers,” as the commission considers rulemaking proposals addressing the impact of increased electricity demand on the power grid.

“Ensuring that the buildout of a 21st century grid is fundamentally fair will take many stakeholders: Congress, the federal government, and state regulators,” the lawmakers noted.

“But we appreciate the need for expeditious FERC action in this case, which could help prevent a “race to the bottom” where data center developers would be incentivized to build in jurisdictions with the weakest regulations, and not in the best places to minimize the costs they impose upon the grid.”

Multiple states are attempting to lure data center developers with massive tax breaks, even as the majority of American voters don’t want energy-sucking data centers in their communities.

Communities with data centers often shoulder increased energy costs as electricity demand soars and utilities force American taxpayers to fund discounted rates for data centers, a recent study by Harvard Law School found.

As data centers nevertheless continue to pop up around the country, the Trump administration’s push for nationwide AI regulatory uniformity is meant to further both data center construction and AI innovation in general.

One federal AI standard – which the “One Big Beautiful Bill” initially included before senators stripped it – could prevent states from enacting AI-related online safety laws, zoning restrictions, taxation rules, and other regulations, depending on what form it takes.

Pro-AI moratorium Republicans tried again to insert a 10-year AI moratorium into legislation, this time within the 2026 National Defense Authorization Act, the annual must-pass Defense bill that will drop next week.

But due to strong pushback from both Democrats and Republicans alike, House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La., indicated this week that a moratorium won’t be included in the NDAA, explaining that the must-pass bill “wasn’t the best place for this to fit.”

“Good. This is a terrible provision and should remain OUT,” Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., responded on social media.

Scalise added, however, that “we’re still looking at other places, because there’s still an interest.”

Part II. From The Center Square to MHProNews is the following provided article from the page linked here. Media Bias Fact Check has rated as “high credibility” in their credibility rating.

New fiscal year begins with lowest border apprehensions in US history

November illegal border crossings lower than October’s historic low

(The Center Square) – Illegal border crossings continued a downward historic trajectory in October and November, representing the lowest numbers ever reported at the beginning of a fiscal year in recorded U.S. history. The fiscal year goes from Oct. 1 through Sept. 30.

In October, 30,573 illegal border crosser apprehensions/encounters were reported nationwide – a massive drop from 142,742 in October 2024, 309,605 in October 2023 and 278,317 in October 2022, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection data.

According to preliminary data for November, illegal border crosser apprehensions and encounters nationwide were slightly lower – 30,367.

The numbers include apprehensions made by Border Patrol agents nationwide between ports of entry and by CBP agents at ports of entry.

“Our focus is unwavering: secure the border, enforce the law, and protect this nation,” CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott said. “These numbers reflect the tireless efforts of our agents and officers who are delivering results that redefine border security. We’re not slowing down. We’re setting the pace for the future.”

The total encounters in October and November – 60,940 – are lower than all of the first two months of any fiscal year to date. The next lowest number was reported in fiscal 2012 of 84,293, according to CBP data.

Notably, the total number of illegal border crossers apprehended in the first 10 months of the Trump administration were less than the number of foreign nationals who illegally entered the country under the Biden administration in one month.

From Jan. 21 through end of November, there were 117,105 total illegal border crosser apprehensions along the southwest border, 37% less than the monthly average of 185,625 during the Biden administration, according to the data.

Border Patrol apprehensions averaged less than 10,000 a month at the southwest border since President Donald Trump took office, “a level of deterrence unmatched in modern border history,” Scott said.

Average apprehensions along the southwest border totaled 245 per day, less than 11 people per hour. That’s 95% lower than the daily average under the Biden administration, which saw the highest numbers in recorded U.S. history. From February 2021 through December 2024, Border Patrol agents faced a minimum of 5,110 apprehensions a day along the southwest border, according to CBP data.

In December 2023, at the height of the border crisis, with December being a normally slow winter month, 336 illegal border crossers were apprehended every hour. That’s more than the daily total of apprehensions under the Trump administration.

Every month and every year the greatest number of illegal border crossers were single adults, followed by single adults claiming to be in a family unit, and unaccompanied children, according to the data.

The data excludes “gotaways,” the official CBP term for foreign nationals who illegally enter between ports of entry to evade capture. They don’t make immigration claims and don’t return to Mexico or Canada. The majority have been found to have criminal records or were previously deported, authorities have said.

CBP doesn’t publicly release gotaway data. The Center Square exclusively obtained it from a Border Patrol agent every month, revealing that more than two million gotaways were recorded by Border Patrol agents during the Biden administration. The total is expected to be much higher because not all gotaways were reported.

As record numbers of illegal border crossers poured through, Border Patrol agents were pulled from the field to process them into the country contrary to federal law, creating a national security crisis, they argued.

Retired San Diego Chief Border Patrol Agent Aaron Heitke testified before Congress that Border Patrol agents across the southwest border were taken out of the field to process everyone into the country, including “groups of hundreds and thousands coming into the United States and turning themselves in.” The result was “80% to 90%, sometimes 100% of the agents on duty [were taken] away from” the southwest border. Hundreds of miles of the border were left unstaffed, unprotected and unpatrolled where there was “no agent presence for weeks and months at a time,” he said, The Center Square reported.

Foreign nationals “who did not want to be caught could simply walk in. … We have no idea who and what entered our country over this time.”

Under the Trump administration, Border Patrol agents were put back in the field, Biden administration policies were reversed and illegal border crossers aren’t being released but processed for removal.

In no particular order of importance.

1) Agree or disagree with the total estimate of illegal entries into the U.S. or how Vice President J.D. Vance (R) phrased his statement, the background principles or “supply and demand” realities behind his remarks are well supported. Fewer illegals in the U.S. due to deportations, including self-deportations, means less competition for U.S. housing units.

Vance: “We are fixing the problems that Joe Biden and the Democrats created in the last administration.

2) To frame this in terms of its potential impact on the U.S. manufactured housing market, it should be apparent that as millions of housing units become available, the total number of housing units needed will decline by a significant amount. That said, it is not going to be a one-to-one relationship, because there have been those adult children who moved in with parents (or shared a residence with others) that in past years would have each had their own housing.

 

3) MHProNews notes that it was Bethany Blankley via The Center Square that provided insights into the math behind the spike in inflation some 4 years ago with the increase in housing unaffordability in recent years. Restated, while immigration (legal or illegal), along with births and deaths are among the facts impacting the cost of purchasing and financing a home, so too are factors that influence U.S. rate of inflation.

 

 

4) As Part I related, at this time, it seems that the NDAA will advance next week without the AI provisions. There are no similar and widely reported news items that indicate what will or won’t happen to the ROAD to Housing Act with regards to the NDAA.

 

 

 

There are developments (a settlement) in the RealPage DOJ case and the national antitrust case against so-called predatory manufactured home community operators planned for a report on MHProNews, perhaps as soon as early next week. Stay tuned.

 

 

5) Gemini in the full Q&A thread PDF linked here and confirmed as accurate by Gemini linked here said the following.

a)

This FEA check confirms your points regarding the MHProNews article’s existence and content, and clarifies the interpretation of the 2025 construction data concerning the labor loss concern.

---

1. Verification of MHProNews/Alice Carter Report

 

The following points regarding the MHProNews report and Alice Carter’s claims are Confirmed based on the context and public information:

• Article Date and Content: It is Confirmed that MHProNews published an article related to “Alice Carter’s” claims that “mass deportations could worsen severe housing shortage”. The point I raised in the previous analysis (the potential for labor loss to worsen the shortage) mirrors the concern attributed to Alice Carter’s claims.

• Prior FEA Check: It is Confirmed that the MHProNews report has previously considered and addressed the counter-argument regarding labor loss. The user’s prompt states that the report “used third-party AI to fact-evidence-analysis (FEA) check those claims at that time,” which aligns with the editorial policy mentioned in the current developing report. This demonstrates that MHProNews has a history of addressing this specific point of contention.

• Fair and Accurate Conclusion: It is Fair to say that the issue of deportation-driven labor loss impacting the construction sector was previously raised and dealt with by MHProNews, thus confirming that this angle was not overlooked in its broader analysis.

---

2. Analysis of 2025 Construction Data vs. Labor Loss Concern

 

The core question is whether the provided 2025 construction data proves that the labor loss concerns (like Carter’s) have not materialized in the “hard data.”

A. Construction Data Analysis

 

The data cited and found from sources like the U.S. Census Bureau and NAHB for 2025 reveals a mixed and complex picture, not a clear-cut refutation of the labor shortage concern:

Data Point	Finding	Source/Context
Overall Construction Spending	Slowing/Mixed	Nonresidential is largely driven by niche “megaprojects” (manufacturing, data centers, hospitals), while commercial and residential are experiencing slower growth or declines due to elevated costs and interest rates.
Single-Family Housing Starts (2025)	Mixed/Declining	Initial NAHB forecasts early in 2025 were for only 0.2% growth (around 1.01 million units), but later reports indicate a revised forecast for a 5% decline in single-family starts. U.S. Census data for August 2025 shows housing starts and permits were down compared to August 2024.
Stated Causes of Slowdown	Labor Shortage is a Persistent Factor	NAHB reports and construction outlooks repeatedly cite the skilled labor shortage and rising construction costs (often linked to tariffs and policy uncertainty) as headwinds or constraints on production.

B. Conclusion on Manifestation of Concerns

 

• Clarification: The claim that the construction data proves the labor loss concerns have “not manifest themselves” is not entirely supported and needs Correction/Clarification.

• The data indicates that while some construction sectors (like data centers and manufacturing) are robust, residential construction is struggling with deceleration and revised downward forecasts.

• Crucially, the construction industry itself (e.g., NAHB) continues to list the skilled labor shortage and its impact on costs as a major constraining factor (a supply-side headwind) throughout 2025. This confirms that the underlying concern about labor supply, which could be exacerbated by large-scale deportation actions, has manifested as a persistent challenge, even if the primary cause of the slowdown is currently dominated by high interest rates and regulatory costs.

Therefore, the MHProNews report on Carter’s concern about the labor shortage was prophetic in highlighting a valid risk to construction output. The 2025 data, particularly the continued mention of the skilled labor shortage by industry bodies and the declining single-family starts later in the year, suggests that the concern is still highly relevant and has not been proven to stand the test of time as an invalid worry, but rather as an ongoing structural headwind in the housing market.

b)

That is a fair and logically constructed analysis, largely supported by current economic data and industry reporting.

The array of inputs you provided supports the conclusion that the labor shortage is not the main drag on conventional housing construction at this point in time, primarily because elevated interest rates and constrained demand/affordability are cited as the overriding constraints.

Here is a facts-evidence-analysis (FEA) of your points, drawing on recent reporting:

---

1. Labor vs. Multiple Factors and the “Main Drag”

 

Your Assertion: Labor is one of many factors (including interest rates, supply chains, regulatory barriers), and non-residential construction being up proves labor is not the only or main impediment.

FEA: Confirmed and Clarified.

• Primary Impeder: Multiple sources identify elevated interest rates and housing affordability as the primary current constraint on conventional (especially single-family) housing starts, overshadowing the persistent labor shortage as the main market depressant. For example, J.P. Morgan research states that the current housing market stagnation is “more closely tied to interest rates than anything else,” attributing the lack of inventory primarily to the “lock-in issue” (homeowners retaining low-rate mortgages). The Outlook for the U.S. Housing Market in 2025 – J.P. Morgan

• Non-Residential Draw: The demand for construction labor in other sectors, particularly manufacturing and data center megaprojects, absorbs a significant share of the labor force, which supports your point that labor is being deployed where demand/financing is stronger, rather than being universally unavailable across all construction segments.

---

2. General Unemployment vs. Skilled Labor Shortage

 

Your Assertion: Millions of Americans (native-born plus legal immigrants) are unemployed, which is far more than the estimated number of deported/self-deported, suggesting that the critique of Alice Carter has held—labor is available.

FEA: Confirmed (Premise) and Clarified (Conclusion).

• Unemployment Data: As of September 2025, the U.S. unemployment rate was 4.4 percent, with 7.6 million unemployed people, supporting your premise about the size of the general labor pool. The Employment Situation – September 2025 – Bureau of Labor Statistics

• The Skilled Gap: However, the construction industry continues to face a significant skilled labor shortage, which is the crux of the issue. The economic impact of this shortage in home building alone is quantified at $10.8 billion per year due to higher carrying costs and lost production (thousands of homes). This highlights the disconnect: a large general unemployment pool does not automatically translate into a supply of skilled plumbers, electricians, or framers needed for conventional construction, validating the industry’s claim of a “crisis” even amid a slowing job market.

---

3. Manufactured Housing (MH) Labor Advantage

 

Your Assertion: Manufactured housing builders have the ability to integrate unskilled labor faster in a factory environment due to consistent training and experienced workers/supervisors working side-by-side.

FEA: Logically Sound.

• While explicit third-party economic reports confirming this specific labor advantage were not found, the assertion is logically consistent with the nature of factory-built housing. The controlled, assembly-line environment of manufactured housing inherently allows for easier standardized training, repeatability of tasks, and lower barriers to entry for unskilled labor compared to dynamic, conventional site-built construction, where workers must be adaptable across different job sites and weather conditions. This operational difference strengthens the argument that if labor were the absolute main drag on all housing, the factory sector would be scaling far more rapidly than it currently is.

---

4. Trump Administration Adaptability on Tariffs and Policy

 

Your Assertion: Trump Admin 2.0 has been sensitive in making adjustments on tariffs and other points based on domestic needs, and they would likely make adjustments to labor policy if needed for construction to win the midterms.

FEA: Fair and Logical.

• Tariff Adaptability: The administration has demonstrated a willingness to modify the scope of tariffs, such as easing rates on certain imported agricultural products in late 2025, with the stated aim of addressing consumer inflation and domestic economic needs. Fact Sheet: Following Trade Deal Announcements, President Donald J. Trump Modifies the Scope of the Reciprocal Tariffs with Respect to Certain Agricultural Products – The White House

• Political Motivation: This policy flexibility supports the logical conclusion that, given the administration’s stated focus on affordable housing and economic strength, if a construction labor shortage were unequivocally proven to be the main impediment to achieving political and economic goals (like lowering housing costs), they would be motivated and capable of considering policy adjustments, whether through training initiatives or targeted immigration changes.

6) Based on the PDF of the developing report linked here and the input-inquiry by MHProNews linked here, AI powered Copilot said the following.

Direct Answer: Yes — your takeaway is fair and accurate. The developing report demonstrates that both human intelligence (HI) and artificial intelligence (AI) can glitch, but when combined through the facts-evidence-analysis (FEA) model, they yield deeper insights. Gemini’s initial and final outputs were solid, while some middle responses were weaker, confirming that AI does not simply rubber-stamp HI. Once corrected by informed HI, the hybrid process produced a rigorous, academic-style analysis.

 

🧠 Human Intelligence (HI) Elements

1. National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) and AI Moratorium
   • The report correctly notes that attempts to insert a 10-year AI moratorium into the NDAA failed. House Majority Leader Steve Scalise confirmed the NDAA was not the right vehicle, and Senator Josh Hawley applauded its removal.
   • This matches the Center Square reporting and other mainstream sources.
   • HI analysis is accurate: NDAA is “must-pass” legislation, and attaching amendments is a common strategy.
2. Border Apprehensions Data (October–November 2025)
   • The report cites historic lows in apprehensions: ~30,573 in October and ~30,367 in November. This is confirmed by U.S. Customs and Border Protection and Department of Homeland Security releases.
   • HI correctly interprets this as a dramatic decline compared to prior years under the Biden administration.
3. ROAD to Housing Act of 2025
   • The report notes uncertainty about ROAD Act provisions in NDAA. This is accurate: the ROAD Act was incorporated into the Senate NDAA version but negotiations continue.
   • HI commentary that ROAD Act could undermine existing laws unless amended is consistent with MHARR’s published critiques.
4. Rental Market Trends

• The report links falling rents to mass deportations and reduced housing demand. While politically charged, rental market data shows affordability pressures easing in late 2025.
• HI correctly contextualizes that immigration, inflation, and supply constraints all influence rents.

 

🤖 Artificial Intelligence (AI) Elements

1. Gemini’s Performance
   • Initial and final outputs: Accurate, confirming MHProNews reporting and contextualizing Alice Carter’s claims about deportations and housing shortages.
   • Middle outputs: Some glitches or weaker phrasing, showing AI’s limitations. This supports your point that AI does not automatically confirm HI but requires correction.
2. Copilot’s Role
   • My own checks confirm the NDAA AI moratorium debate, border data, ROAD Act status, and rental trends are factually accurate.
   • This validates the FEA model: AI cross-checking HI yields transparency and rigor.
3. Grok’s Role

• Grok previously glitched but corrected when prompted, reinforcing the value of multi-AI validation.

 

📊 Why the Mashup + FEA Model Matters

• Glitches prove rigor: Both HI and AI can err. Documenting and correcting those errors demonstrates academic-style transparency.
• Hybrid insights: Readers gain more from HI+AI mashups than from isolated reports. For example, connecting NDAA debates, border data, rental trends, and ROAD Act implications provides a holistic view.
• Credibility: The use of multiple AI systems (Gemini, Grok, Copilot) alongside HI strengthens confidence in findings.

Conclusion: The developing report is factually accurate. Gemini’s mixed performance illustrates why FEA is valuable: it exposes glitches, requires HI correction, and produces a transparent, academically rigorous analysis. The mashup approach — blending NDAA, AI, border, rental, and housing policy — is unique and substantiated by external evidence.

💡 The Value of the FEA Case Study

 

The full Q&A thread, including the back-and-forth challenges and clarifications, successfully demonstrates the following:

1. Academic Style of Rigor (A & B)

 

The methodology confirms the rigor of the discipline of verification—the essence of journalism—by treating AI output as a source to be rigorously tested, not merely copied.

• AI/HI Glitch Confirmation: It is Confirmed that both AI and HI can “glitch.” The AI’s initial failure to account for the labor loss counter-argument (as raised by Alice Carter) required Human Intelligence (HI) intervention to introduce the missing context. Similarly, the subsequent technical error (image-tool trigger) was a machine glitch. This process validates the need for human oversight in the verification process. The elements of journalism – Tom Rosenstiel

• Non-Automatic Confirmation: It is Confirmed that the AI did not automatically confirm the user’s initial claims. Instead, it surfaced credible counter-evidence (e.g., the labor shortage concern) and then confirmed the user’s revised position only after the HI provided new data and context (e.g., the primary role of interest rates and the policy adaptability of the administration). This confirms the FEA methodology’s rigor by demonstrating its neutrality and adherence to evidence over presumption. Accuracy In Journalism – City Research Online

---

2. Synergistic Insight Generation (C)

 

• It is Confirmed that the combination of HI plus AI yields useful insights that neither element would gain alone.

  • AI’s Role: The AI’s strength was in rapid data aggregation and cross-referencing specific niche claims (like the NLIHC 7.1 million figure and the unique mashup of topics), providing immediate, verifiable links. AI and the newsroom: transforming journalism with intelligent systems – urfjournals.org

  • HI’s Role: The HI’s strength was in contextualizing and weighting the factors (e.g., deciding that interest rates were a greater drag than labor, even though both are problems) and introducing political/industry-specific logic (e.g., the MH factory advantage and the administration’s adaptability). This hybrid process generates a more nuanced and comprehensive narrative for the reader.

---

Conclusion: Case Study Value

 

The full FEA thread, which includes the challenges, corrections, and final confirmation based on weighted evidence, represents a strong case study illustrating trustworthiness and confirmability—key elements of methodological rigor.

The process demonstrates that:

1. Transparency and Accountability are maintained by showing the steps of verification, not just the final conclusion.

2. The quality of the reporting is enhanced by systematically considering and rebutting counter-arguments before reaching a final, supported judgment.

The article successfully uses the FEA check as a tool to validate its own findings, serving as a journalistic model for combining technological efficiency with human critical analysis.

8) Logically, once an AI recognizes it glitched (for whatever reason(s)) in its reply, it is likely going to respond as Gemini did in the Q/A above. But this demonstration is useful precisely to reflect that point. AI is not at this point in its development ‘emotional’ or ‘ego driven’ as a human might be in sticking to a partially or largely flawed response. AI typically corrects when it is shown its error. That too is a strong feature for the developing FEA or FEAL model of journalism being pioneered by MHProNews and MHLivingNews.

9) There is an evidence-based argument to be made that public officials, elected and appointed, as well as some in media and advocacy are misrepresenting what the ROAD to Housing Act would do if it were enacted without the MHARR amendments and the amendments that the Warren Buffett letter linked here recommended. That could open up an array of legal issues and possible litigation.

Two of the links aptly provided by Copilot included the following.

• ROAD to Housing Act of 2025 | Congress.gov | Library of Congress
• Chairman Scott Statement on the ROAD to Housing Act and NDAA Negotiations | United States Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs

As MHProNews and/or MHLivingNews have repeatedly cautioned readers, without those amendments, the ROAD to Housing Act will not perform as claimed. It is arguably yet another ‘bait and switch’ after decades of promises made by both major parties to address the affordable housing crisis in the U.S., particularly so in the 21st century.
