Public Law 115-174 includes Sec. 107, “Protecting access to manufactured homes,” and excludes qualifying manufactured/modular-home retailers from the mortgage-originator definition.

Public Law 115-174 includes Sec. 214, “Promoting construction and development on Main Street,” governing capital requirements for acquisition, development, or construction loans.

EO 14394 states that regulatory barriers and slow permitting increased housing costs and directs agencies to reduce burdens on residential development and permitting.

This executive action directly matches the promised policy direction, but it was issued by President Trump rather than Barr, so it supports only partial federal-policy fulfillment for Barr.
