What the document says
“Section 404(b) of the FISA Amendments Act of 2008 (Public Law 110-261) is amended-- (1) in paragraph (1)-- (A) in the heading, by striking "two years after the date of enactment of the reforming intelligence and securing america act" and inserting "repeal date"”
Subsection (b). It amends section 404(b) of the FISA Amendments Act of 2008 in four steps. A paragraph heading that named a date counted from the enactment of the Reforming Intelligence and Securing America Act is replaced with the words "repeal date". In both paragraphs (1) and (2), a run of text listing the Acts that had amended title VII is replaced with the citation "(50 U.S.C. 1881 et seq.)". The quotation shows the first step.
What the document actually says
“Section 404(b) of the FISA Amendments Act of 2008 (Public Law 110-261) is amended-- (1) in paragraph (1)-- (A) in the heading, by striking "two years after the date of enactment of the reforming intelligence and securing america act" and inserting "repeal date"”
That sentence, in plain words
This part fixes the words in an older law. It swaps a long name for the words repeal date.
What this is about
Some rules cover what happens when title VII ends. This tidies how they point to the law.

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.
