That sentence, in plain words

The head of the VA must print the new amounts. They go in a daily government paper.

What this is about

The paper is the Federal Register. It is where agencies post what they do. A date is set by another law, and this part uses that same date.

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 one duty the section places: publication of the increased amounts in the Federal Register, and the deadline it sets for that.

Nothing. The section runs to one sentence and that sentence is recorded.

The deadline is stated by reference to a date fixed under the Social Security Act, which is not indexed here, so the section itself names no calendar date.
