The section amends section 363(2)(F) of the Multifamily Mortgage Foreclosure Act of 1981 to add loans under section 538 of the Housing Act of 1949, and the matching United States Code citation, to the mortgages the Act's procedures reach.

That sentence, in plain words

Two words come out of an older law. Longer words go in. They add one more kind of loan. A code citation is added to match.

What this is about

The older Act sets out how the farm agency forecloses. It listed some loan programs and not others. Now it lists one more.

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.
