The whole of section 1. It supplies a short name for citing the Act and does nothing else. The Act began as S. 1596 in the 119th Congress, was approved on July 24, 2025, and became Public Law 119-30. It amends no older statute.

This law has a short name. People may call it by that name.

What this is about

Laws get short names so people can talk about them. A short name does not change any rule. It is just a label.

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.
