The Director of the Government Publishing Office must print 20 extra copies, in slip form, of every public law and joint resolution Congress passes. These extra copies go to the House Judiciary Committee, which decides how they get distributed.

This section is one undivided provision. It orders the Director of the Government Publishing Office to print 20 additional copies, in slip form (meaning printed individually rather than bound into a larger volume), of each public Act and joint resolution. This is on top of the number of copies already required by other law. As soon as they're printed, the Director must distribute these 20 copies however the House Judiciary Committee decides.
