“Section 428F(a)(5) of the Higher Education Act of 1965 (20 U.S.C. 1078-6(a)(5)) is amended by striking "one time" and inserting "two times".”
The section strikes one time and inserts two times in section 428F(a)(5) of the Higher Education Act of 1965, and strikes once and inserts twice in section 464(h)(1)(D). The changes take effect on July 1, 2027 and apply to any loan made, insured or guaranteed under title IV of that Act.
What the document actually says
“Section 428F(a)(5) of the Higher Education Act of 1965 (20 U.S.C. 1078-6(a)(5)) is amended by striking "one time" and inserting "two times".”
That sentence, in plain words
The words one time are taken out of a loan law. The words two times are put in.
What this is about
The same change is made for a second kind of loan. Rehabilitating brings a loan out of default. It may now be done twice.

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.
