What This Page Covers, and What It Leaves Out

The one thing the section does, done seven times: strike January 30, 2026 and insert December 31, 2026 in seven named provisions of the Public Health Service Act.

The seven amendments listed one by one. They make the identical change.

The section amends the Public Health Service Act, which is not indexed here, so what these national health security provisions require is not recorded on this site.
