not be used to meet the renewable fuel volume requirements set by the Renewable Fuel Program. The bill seeks to ensure that only physical RINs, which are paper certificates used to track the production and use of renewable fuels, can be used to demonstrate compliance with the program.

This clarification is intended to uphold the integrity of the Renewable Fuel Program and ensure that the mandated levels of renewable fuels are actually being produced and used in transportation fuel. In addition to addressing the issue of eRINs, the bill also includes provisions for other purposes related to the Renewable Fuel Program. Overall, the goal of Bill 119 HR 2144 is to strengthen the enforcement mechanisms of the program and prevent any loopholes that could undermine its effectiveness in promoting the use of renewable fuels in the transportation sector.

pose of this bill is to reinstate the taxable REIT subsidiary asset test, which was previously eliminated. A Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) is a company that owns, operates, or finances income-producing real estate. In order to maintain their status as a REIT, these companies must meet certain requirements, one of which is the taxable REIT subsidiary asset test. This test ensures that a REIT's taxable subsidiaries do not hold a significant amount of non-real estate assets. The bill seeks to restore this asset test in order to prevent abuse of the REIT structure and ensure that these companies are primarily focused on real estate investments. By reinstating this test, the bill aims to promote transparency and accountability within the REIT industry. Overall, the "Restore the Taxable REIT Subsidiary Asset Test Act" is a measure designed to strengthen the regulations surrounding REITs and protect the integrity of the real estate investment market.

hibit discrimination by abortion against an unborn child on the basis of Down syndrome. This means that it would be illegal for a woman to seek an abortion solely because the fetus has been diagnosed with Down syndrome. The bill seeks to protect unborn children with Down syndrome from being targeted for abortion simply because of their genetic condition. Supporters of the bill argue that this type of discrimination is unethical and goes against the principles of equality and respect for all individuals, regardless of their abilities or disabilities. Opponents of the bill, however, argue that it infringes on a woman's right to choose what happens to her own body and her own pregnancy. They believe that women should have the right to make decisions about their own reproductive health without government interference. Overall, the bill raises important ethical and legal questions about the rights of unborn children with disabilities and the rights of women to make decisions about their own bodies. It will be interesting to see how this bill progresses through Congress and what impact it may have on the ongoing debate surrounding abortion rights and disability rights in the United States.
