What the document says
“Sections 7D and 19(a) of the United States Grain Standards Act (7 U.S.C. 79d, 87h(a)) shall be applied by substituting "2026" for "2025" each place it appears.”
Subsection (b) does the same thing for two further sections, this time substituting a year rather than a full date.
What the document actually says
“Sections 7D and 19(a) of the United States Grain Standards Act (7 U.S.C. 79d, 87h(a)) shall be applied by substituting "2026" for "2025" each place it appears.”
That sentence, in plain words
Two more parts of the grain law are read with 2026 in place of 2025.
What this is about
These parts name a year, not a day. So only the year is swapped. The rest of the words stay as they were.
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.
