Statutory Text

How the Date Is Worked Out

  1. Enacted Apr. 24, 2024 (Pub. L. 118-50).
  2. Text: “Not later than 90 days after the date of the enactment of this division.” Apr. 24, 2024 + 90 days = July 23, 2024.
  3. Sec. 6 ends the section (Apr. 24, 2028); no deadline falls after that date.
  4. Recurs every 180 days, running from the first deadline: July 23, 2024 + k × 180 days.
  5. As of Nov. 11, 2026: next deadline Jan. 9, 2027 (59 days away); previous July 13, 2026.
