To require approval from the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development for any Federal manufactured home and safety standards, and for other purposes.

# Summary of HR 5263 **What the Bill Would Do** HR 5263 would require that any federal manufactured home and safety standards must receive approval from the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) before taking effect. Currently, the Department of Housing and Urban Development sets these standards, but this bill would add an additional approval step. The bill's exact details beyond this requirement are not specified in the available information. **Who It Affects** This bill would primarily affect the manufactured housing industry, including manufacturers and sellers of mobile homes. It would also impact consumers who purchase manufactured homes, as well as HUD and any other federal agencies involved in setting housing safety standards.

States and local governments that regulate manufactured housing could also be affected depending on how the bill is implemented. **Current Status** HR 5263 is currently in committee and has not advanced further in the legislative process. The bill was introduced by Rep. Mike Flood (R-Nebraska) in the 119th Congress. No action has been taken since it was referred to committee, meaning it has not yet been debated or voted on by the full House of Representatives.
