Section 4 also names the explanatory statements for divisions A, B and C of H.R. 7006 of the 119th Congress, printed in the Congressional Record on January 14, 2026, and gives each the effect of a joint explanatory statement for divisions E, F and G of this Act in turn.

What the document actually says

“printed in the House section of the Congressional Record on January 14, 2026, and submitted by the chair of the Committee on Appropriations of the House, shall each have the same effect with respect to the allocation of funds and implementation of divisions E, F, and G, respectively, of this Act as if they were each a joint explanatory statement of a committee of conference”

That sentence, in plain words

Three other reports were printed in the record of Congress on January 14, 2026. Each one counts as a joint report for one of the next three blocks of money.

What this is about

Parts of this law started life in a different bill. The reports for that bill still count. This part lines each report up with the block it goes with.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, checked against the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
