What the document says
“Section 781(j) of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 295h(j)) is amended by striking ``$25,000,000 for each of fiscal years 2019 through 2023'' and inserting ``$40,000,000 for each of fiscal years 2026 through 2030''.”
The section amends section 781(j) of the Public Health Service Act, replacing the ceiling of $25,000,000 for each of fiscal years 2019 through 2023 with $40,000,000 for each of fiscal years 2026 through 2030.
What the document actually says
“Section 781(j) of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 295h(j)) is amended by striking ``$25,000,000 for each of fiscal years 2019 through 2023'' and inserting ``$40,000,000 for each of fiscal years 2026 through 2030''.”
That sentence, in plain words
The old top amount was $25,000,000 a year. The new top amount is $40,000,000 a year. It runs from 2026 through 2030.
What this is about
This program helps pay off school loans. It goes to people who work in drug treatment. Congress must still vote to fund it.

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.
