(a) Definitions.--In this section:
(1) Restated provision.--The term ``restated provision''
means a provision of law that is enacted by section 6.
(2) Source provision.--The term ``source provision'' means a
provision of law that is replaced by a restated provision.
(b) Cutoff Date.--The restated provisions replace certain provisions
of law enacted on or before July 30, 2025. If a law enacted after that
date amends or repeals a source provision, that law is deemed to amend
or repeal, as the case may be, the corresponding restated provision. If
a law enacted after that date is otherwise inconsistent with a restated
provision or a provision of this Act, that law supersedes the restated
provision or provision of this Act to the extent of the inconsistency.
(c) Original Date of Enactment Unchanged.--A restated provision is
deemed to have been enacted on the date of enactment of the source
provision.
(d) References to Restated Provisions.--A reference to a restated
provision is deemed to refer to the corresponding source provision.
(e) References to Source Provisions.--A reference to a source
provision, including a reference in a regulation, order, or other law,
is deemed to refer to the corresponding restated provision.
(f) Regulations, Orders, and Other Administrative Actions.--A
regulation, order, or other administrative action in effect under a
source provision continues in effect under the corresponding restated
54 provision.
(g) Actions Taken and Offenses Committed.--An action taken or an
offense committed under a source provision is deemed to have been taken
or committed under the corresponding restated provision.
(h) Legislative Construction.--An inference of legislative
construction is not to be drawn by reason of a restated provision's
location in the United States Code or by reason of the heading used for
the restated provision.
