           By Mr. SMITH of Texas:
       H.R. 6342.
       Congress has the power to enact this legislation pursuant 
     to the following:
       Article I, Section 8, Clause 18 of the Constitution, which 
     confers on Congress the authority to make all laws necessary 
     and proper for carrying into execution the powers vested by 
     the Constitution in the government of the United States, or 
     in any department or officer thereof.
       This legislation makes technical amendments to update 
     statutory references to certain provisions classified to 
     title 51, United States Code, as necessary to keep the title 
     current and make technical corrections and improvements. 
     Making revisions to the United States Code is a necessary 
     role of Congress with respect to executing the powers vested 
     by the Constitution in the government of the United States.
