To provide for reconciliation pursuant to title II of H. Con. Res. 14, Sec. 80001

The section amends section 480(f)(2) of the Higher Education Act of 1965 (20 U.S.C. 1087vv(f)(2)) to add three assets whose net value is left out: a family farm the family lives on, a small business with no more than 100 full-time or equivalent employees owned and controlled by the family, and a commercial fishing business and related expenses, including vessels and permits the family owns and controls.

What the document actually says

“a family farm on which the family resides;”

To provide for reconciliation pursuant to title II of H. Con. Res. 14, Sec. 80001
That sentence, in plain words

A family farm is left out. The family must live on it.

What this is about

A small business the family runs is left out too. It may have no more than 100 staff. A fishing business counts as well, with its boats and permits.

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.
