The Code was first published in 1926, and a new edition of the code has been published every six years since 1934. The 2024 edition of the Code incorporates laws enacted through the One Hundred Eighteenth Congress, Second Session, the last of which was signed by the President on January 6, 2025. By statutory authority this edition may be cited "U.S.C. 2024 ed." As adopted in 1926, the Code established prima facie the general and permanent laws of the United States. The underlying statutes reprinted in the Code remained in effect and controlled over the Code in case of any discrepancy. In 1947, Congress began enacting individual titles of the Code into positive law. When a title is enacted into positive law, the underlying statutes are repealed, and the title then becomes legal evidence of the law. Currently, 27 of the 53 titles in the Code have been so enacted. These are identified in the table of titles near the beginning of each volume. The Law Revision Counsel of the House of Representatives continues to prepare legislation pursuant to 2 U.S.C. 285b to enact the remainder of the Code, on a title-by-title basis, into positive law. The 2024 edition of the Code was prepared and published under the supervision of Brian D. Lindsey, Law Revision Counsel. Grateful acknowledgment is made of the contributions by all who helped in this work, particularly the staffs of the Office of the Law Revision Counsel and the Government Publishing Office. -- Mike Johnson, Speaker of the House of Representatives, Washington, D.C., January 6, 2025"--Preface.  aKept up-to-date by supplements.0 aDescription based on: Volume one, title from title page. 0aLawzUnited States. 7aLaw2fast 7aUnited States2fast 2aLegislation 7alaw codes.2aat 7astatutes.2aat 7aStatutes and codes2fast 7aCompiled statutes.2gtlm 7aStatutes and codes.2lcgft1 aUnited States.bCongress.bHouse.bOffice of the Law Revision Counsel,eissuing body.08iRevision of:aUnited States.sU.S. code : 2018 edition.tUnited States code.b2018 edition.dWashington, D.C. : United States Government Publishing Office, 2018-2025w(OCoLC)1117339917
