What the document says
“Section 101(a)(27)(C)(ii) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1101(a)(27)(C)(ii)) shall be applied by substituting ``September 30, 2026'' for ``September 30, 2015'' each place such date appears.”
Section 5015 directs that section 101(a)(27)(C)(ii) of the Immigration and Nationality Act be applied with September 30, 2026 in place of September 30, 2015, in each place that date appears. The heading names non-minister religious workers as the subject.
What the document actually says
“Section 101(a)(27)(C)(ii) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1101(a)(27)(C)(ii)) shall be applied by substituting ``September 30, 2026'' for ``September 30, 2015'' each place such date appears.”
That sentence, in plain words
Read one part of the main law on who may enter as if each old date were September 30, 2026.
What this is about
The heading points at church workers who are not clergy. This part swaps an old date for a later one, each time it shows up.

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.
