To increase the supply of housing in America, and for other purposes, Sec. 303

The section changes the matter before paragraph (2) of section 2(b) of the National Housing Act so that the Secretary acts by notice rather than regulation, sets rather than increases the limits, covers subparagraphs (A) through (H) rather than a shorter list, and may periodically reset the limits where needed to achieve the goals of the Federal Housing Administration, on a justification and methodology set out in advance by regulation.

What the document actually says

“by inserting ``, or as necessary to achieve the goals of the Federal Housing Administration, periodically reset the dollar amount limitations in subparagraphs (A) through (H) based on justification and methodology set forth in advance by regulation'' before the period at the end; and”

To increase the supply of housing in America, and for other purposes, Sec. 303
That sentence, in plain words

New words let the housing agency reset the limits from time to time. It may do so to meet its own goals. It must first set out its reasons and method in a rule.

What this is about

Before this the agency could only raise the limits. Now it can set them either way. Notice is a lighter step than a full rule.

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.
