What the document says
“subparagraphs (A) and (B), by striking "a general partnership, a participant in a joint venture" each place it appears and inserting "a qualified pass-through entity"; and”
The section amends section 1001A(b)(2) of the Food Security Act of 1985 (7 U.S.C. 1308-1(b)(2)) by making the quoted substitution in subparagraphs (A) and (B), and by striking the words a general partnership, joint venture, or similar entity in subparagraph (C) and inserting the words a qualified pass-through entity or a similar entity.
What the document actually says
“subparagraphs (A) and (B), by striking "a general partnership, a participant in a joint venture" each place it appears and inserting "a qualified pass-through entity"; and”
That sentence, in plain words
Old words are taken out of two parts of a test. The new term is put in their place.
What this is about
The test decides who counts as actively farming. A third part of the test gets the same swap. The test itself is not indexed here.
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.
