The whole of section 1. It supplies a short name for citing the Act and does nothing else. The Act began as H.R. 2215 in the 119th Congress, was approved on July 15, 2025, and became Public Law 119-25. It amends no older statute.

What the document actually says

That sentence, in plain words

This law has a short name. People may call it by that name.

What this is about

Laws get short names so people can talk about them. A short name does not change any rule. It is just a label.

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.

What This Page Covers, and What It Leaves Out

The single sentence the section contains: the short name by which the Act may be cited.

The codification note the Government Publishing Office prints in the margin beside the section, which records where the note is placed in the United States Code. It is a printer's marker, not a provision of the Act.

The section amends no older statute and requires nothing of anybody, so nothing recorded here depends on a document that is not indexed.
