The section requires the Secretary of Agriculture to report to the House Committee on Financial Services and the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs within 5 years of enactment.

That sentence, in plain words

The farm agency must write a report. It has five years to send it. It goes to two committees in Congress.

A report is how Congress checks on a change it made. This one asks whether the skipped step saved time and money. It also asks what happened to rural housing.

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, and we check 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.
