50 U.S.C. § 206 — Suspension of commercial intercourse with part of State in insurrection
submitted date unrecorded by Congress to r/title-50-WAR-AND-NATIONAL-DEFENSE · 79 words · no verdicts yet
If part of a state isn't officially declared to be in insurrection but is controlled by insurgents, or is close to insurgent-controlled areas, trade there gets restricted. That trade becomes subject to the same limits section 205 sets, for as long as needed to protect the public. The Secretary of the Treasury directs this, with the President's approval.
Whenever any part of a State not declared to be in insurrection is under the control of insurgents, or is in dangerous proximity to places under their control, all commercial intercourse therein and therewith shall be subject to the prohibitions and conditions of section 205 of this title for such time and to such extent as shall become necessary to protect the public interests, and be directed by the Secretary of the Treasury, with the approval of the President.
