Let’s take 5 to thank the manufactured housing association leaders who have already sounded off in public on The Hill’s Congressional blog’s “read hot” manufactured home lending expose of the harmful reality of CFPB regs and the holes in CFED’s policy positions.
The list of public comments from others in MH also are coming in too. As of about 4 PM ET, on Friday here are the execs…
> Ross Kinzler
> Joe Kelley
> Sheila Dey
> Jess Maxcy
> Mark Bruner
> Tyler Craddock
…these above are not in any particular order, and each has a great message to share that was a strong complement to the core commentary.
We also see a terrific and growing list of other industry pros:
From the
> MH Communities sector
> Retailers
> a former federal official – who is pro-MH!
And more!
See for yourself, read the column and then scroll down the page and click to see the comments to date.

Ross shared a thoughtful message with us and with his members in Wisconsin. We know another fine association exec who has also called on that association’s members to join in on public commenting.
Please take three easy steps.
1) Share a statement or story that makes the case for passing S 682 into law. Just a few minutes, you can logon to their comment system using a social media account in seconds, or directly with The Hill’s comment system. Your message could be short, long or in between…these are being read.
2) Once you’ve posted, send it to your congressional representative and both Senators. Thank them for supporting this, sharing the link above, encouraging them to read the comments. It’s powerful! It’s powerful because the facts are on our side.
3) Then please ask another to do the same. Each one, reach one. Pass it on.
There are a few weeks before this comes up for a vote. This is visible in DC, and beyond. What I love about the comments is that they build on the fact that this is good for current MH owners, new MH home buyers and for business.
We in MH are the true MH owners and consumers advocates. We are the good business advocates. It’s Your Voice, please make it heard and make it count. Thank you. ##
