To provide for reconciliation pursuant to title II of H. Con. Res. 14, Sec. 100202

The section amends section 4(a)(1)(A) of the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act by replacing October 31, 1958 with November 6, 1962, by changing the affected area to an affected area, and by adding a new subclause covering someone physically present in an affected area for at least 1 year between September 24, 1944 and November 6, 1962.

What the document actually says

“in subclause (I), by striking ``October 31, 1958'' and inserting ``November 6, 1962'';”

To provide for reconciliation pursuant to title II of H. Con. Res. 14, Sec. 100202
That sentence, in plain words

One date is taken out of a claim rule. It was October 31, 1958. The new date is November 6, 1962.

What this is about

That widens the window by four years. A new ground is also added. It covers a year spent in an affected area.

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.
