Subsection (b) is struck and the remaining text loses its label
The document says “is amended”Who acts: CongressHow: statuteSec. 207 in the PDF
What the document says
“Section 3203 of the SUPPORT for Patients and Communities Act (21 U.S.C. 823 note) is amended-- (1) by striking subsection (b); and (2) by striking ``(a) In General.--The Secretary'' and inserting the following: ``The Secretary''.”
The section strikes subsection (b) of section 3203 of the SUPPORT for Patients and Communities Act, and removes the subsection (a) heading from the text that remains, so the section reads as one block.
What the document actually says
“Section 3203 of the SUPPORT for Patients and Communities Act (21 U.S.C. 823 note) is amended-- (1) by striking subsection (b); and (2) by striking ``(a) In General.--The Secretary'' and inserting the following: ``The Secretary''.”
That sentence, in plain words
One piece of an older law is cut. The label on the piece left behind is cut too. What is left starts with the words The Secretary.
What this is about
When a section has only one part left, the label is not needed. Taking it out is tidying, not a change of rule.
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.
