TITLE 6—DOMESTIC SECURITY
§ 466
rity Task Force composed of representatives
from military and civilian agencies of the
United States Government for the purposes of
anticipating terrorist threats against the United
States and taking appropriate actions to pre-
vent harm to the United States.
(b) Structure
It is the sense of Congress that the Secretary
should model the Joint Interagency Homeland
Security Task Force on the approach taken by
the Joint Interagency Task Forces for drug
interdiction at Key West, Florida and Alameda,
California, to the maximum extent feasible and
appropriate.
(Pub. L. 107–296, title VIII, § 885, Nov. 25, 2002, 116
Stat. 2247.)
§ 466. Sense of Congress reaffirming the contin-
ued importance and applicability of the
Posse Comitatus Act
(a) Findings
Congress finds the following:
(1) Section 1385 of title 18 (commonly known
as the ‘‘Posse Comitatus Act’’) prohibits the
use of the Armed Forces as a posse comitatus
to execute the laws except in cases and under
circumstances expressly authorized by the
Constitution or Act of Congress.
(2) Enacted in 1878, the Posse Comitatus Act
was expressly intended to prevent United
States Marshals, on their own initiative, from
calling on the Army for assistance in enforc-
ing Federal law.
(3) The Posse Comitatus Act has served the
Nation well in limiting the use of the Armed
Forces to enforce the law.
(4) Nevertheless, by its express terms, the
Posse Comitatus Act is not a complete barrier
to the use of the Armed Forces for a range of
domestic purposes, including law enforcement
functions, when the use of the Armed Forces is
authorized by Act of Congress or the President
determines that the use of the Armed Forces
is required to fulfill the President’s obliga-
tions
