6 U.S.C. § 456 — Military activities

submitted 24 years ago by Pub. L. 107-296 to r/title-6-DOMESTIC-SECURITY · 60 words · no verdicts yet

in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

This chapter does not give the Secretary new power over military action. It does not let the Secretary run warfighting or national defense. It also does not reduce the military's existing power over those same activities.

This section is a single provision with no lettered subsections. It works in two directions. First, nothing in this chapter gives the Secretary any authority to engage in warfighting, the military defense of the United States, or other military activities. The Secretary's powers under this chapter do not extend into that space. Second, nothing in this chapter limits the existing authority of the Department of Defense or the Armed Forces to engage in those same activities — warfighting, military defense, or other military activities. Their existing authority stays exactly as it was.
