H.R. 650/S.R. 862 PRESERVING ACCESS TO MANUFACTURED HOUSING ACT

FSMHA Members are urged to contact their U.S. Representative and request they co-sponsor H.R. 650 / S.R. 682

On the left hand column we have links for those Pennsylvania Congressional Delegates that still have not co-sponsored H.R. 650 / S.R. 682. They need to hear from you, their constituent, urging co-sponsorship of H.R. 650 / S.R. 862.

This can be simply done by sending a short message, using our National Association, MHI, pre-written letter. Click here. http://cqrcengage.com/mhi/home

GENERAL INFORMATION:

In an effort to provide the manufactured housing industry relief from onerous Dodd-Frank provisions, Reps. Stephen Fincher (R-TN), Andy Barr (R-KY), Terri Sewell (D-AL) and Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) have introduced the Preserving Access to Manufactured Housing Act in the House as H.R. 650. Senators Joe Donnelly (D-IN), Pat Toomey (R-PA), Joe Manchin (D-WV), and Tom Cotton (R-AR) have introduced it in the Senate as S. 682.

Specifically, H.R. 650 / S.R. 682, the Preserving Access to Manufactured Housing Act would clarify the Dodd-Frank Act provisions that have impeded the ability of consumers to access affordable manufactured housing financing, without undermining key Dodd-Frank mortgage protections.
