What the document says
“Section 208 of the Secure Rural Schools and Community Self-Determination Act of 2000 (16 U.S.C. 7128) is amended-- (A) in subsection (a), by striking ``2025'' and inserting ``2028''; and (B) in subsection (b), by striking ``2026'' and inserting ``2029''.”
The section amends section 208 of the Secure Rural Schools and Community Self-Determination Act of 2000 (16 U.S.C. 7128), striking 2025 in subsection (a) and inserting 2028, and striking 2026 in subsection (b) and inserting 2029. The heading the Act gives this subsection is extension of authority to conduct special projects on Federal land.
What the document actually says
“Section 208 of the Secure Rural Schools and Community Self-Determination Act of 2000 (16 U.S.C. 7128) is amended-- (A) in subsection (a), by striking ``2025'' and inserting ``2028''; and (B) in subsection (b), by striking ``2026'' and inserting ``2029''.”
That sentence, in plain words
One year moves from 2025 to 2028. A second year moves from 2026 to 2029.
What this is about
Each year is three years later than before. The Act calls this part special projects on federal land. Moving both years keeps that work going.

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.
