What the document says
“Section 104(6)(B) of the Cranston-Gonzalez National Affordable Housing Act (42 U.S.C. 12704(6)(B)) is amended by striking ``significant''.”
The section amends section 104(6)(B) of the Cranston-Gonzalez National Affordable Housing Act by striking the word significant from the definition of a community housing development organization.
What the document actually says
“Section 104(6)(B) of the Cranston-Gonzalez National Affordable Housing Act (42 U.S.C. 12704(6)(B)) is amended by striking ``significant''.”
That sentence, in plain words
One word comes out of a definition in an older law. The word is significant. Nothing goes in to replace it.
What this is about
The definition says what a community housing group is. That word set a bar the group had to clear. Taking it out lowers the bar.

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.
