What the document says
“Section 3733(a)(8) of title 38, United States Code, is amended-- (1) in the matter preceding subparagraph (A), by striking "September 30, 2025" and inserting "September 30, 2026"; and (2) in subparagraph (C), by striking "September 30, 2025" and inserting "September 30, 2026".”
A vendee loan is one the department makes to the buyer of a property it holds. The authority for it is written with an end date in two places.
What the document actually says
“Section 3733(a)(8) of title 38, United States Code, is amended-- (1) in the matter preceding subparagraph (A), by striking "September 30, 2025" and inserting "September 30, 2026"; and (2) in subparagraph (C), by striking "September 30, 2025" and inserting "September 30, 2026".”
That sentence, in plain words
The same old date is taken out in two places. The same later date goes in each time.
What this is about
The department ends up owning homes after some loans fail. It can sell them and lend the buyer the price.
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.

What This Page Covers, and What It Leaves Out
Both date changes the section makes to section 3733(a)(8) of title 38.
Nothing else. The section makes the same swap twice.
The section works by amending title 38 of the United States Code. That law is not indexed here, so this file does not say on what terms such a loan is made.
