The document says “is amended”Who acts: CongressHow: statuteSec. 2401 in the PDF
What the document says
“by striking ``through 2027'' and inserting ``through 2028''”
The section replaces the last year of the cut schedule in both clause (i) and clause (ii) of section 1923(f)(7)(A) of the Social Security Act, moving it from fiscal year 2027 to fiscal year 2028.
What the document actually says
“by striking ``through 2027'' and inserting ``through 2028''”
That sentence, in plain words
The words through 2027 are taken out. The words through 2028 are put in.
What this is about
The cuts had a last year. That last year moves out by one. So the run of cuts is one year longer.
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.
