This part changes the name of a place for wild animals in Texas. Its old name was Anahuac. Its new name is Jocelyn Nungaray. Old papers that use the old name now mean the new one.

What the document says
“The Anahuac National Wildlife Refuge located in the State of Texas shall be known as the ``Jocelyn Nungaray National Wildlife Refuge''.”
Subsection (a), and the operative provision of the Act. It renames the refuge in Texas by statute. The Act amends no older law to do it; the sentence stands on its own. Section 2 records that Executive Order 14229 had already set the same name in March 2025.
What the document actually says
“The Anahuac National Wildlife Refuge located in the State of Texas shall be known as the ``Jocelyn Nungaray National Wildlife Refuge''.”
That sentence, in plain words
The land in Texas has a new name. It is now the Jocelyn Nungaray National Wildlife Refuge.
What this is about
A wildlife refuge is land set aside for wild animals. This one sits near the coast of Texas. Its old name was Anahuac.
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 the document says
“shall be deemed to be a reference to the ``Jocelyn Nungaray National Wildlife Refuge''.”
Subsection (b). It provides that any reference to the refuge in a law, map, regulation, document, paper, or other record of the United States is taken to be a reference to the new name. The subsection names no record and requires no record to be reprinted.
What the document actually says
“shall be deemed to be a reference to the ``Jocelyn Nungaray National Wildlife Refuge''.”
That sentence, in plain words
Old papers may still use the old name. Those words now mean the new name.
What this is about
This covers laws, maps, rules, files, and other records of the government. The new name holds even where old words stay in place.

Both subsections: the renaming itself in subsection (a), and the rule in subsection (b) for what earlier references to the refuge are taken to mean.
Nothing in the section is left out. The section runs to two subsections and does nothing else.
The section amends no older statute, so nothing recorded here depends on a document that is not indexed. Subsection (b) reaches records of the United States that name the refuge, and the site has not surveyed which records those are.
