50 U.S.C. § 3093 — Presidential approval and reporting of covert actions (2024 Edition)

United States Congress. govinfo.gov.

The 2024 Edition sets conditions for presidential covert-action findings and congressional reporting. Restricted access retains reasons, periodic review and committee notice/records. Its covert-action definition concerns unacknowledged overseas influence and excludes specified intelligence, military, diplomatic and other activities; secrecy alone does not establish that classification. The text also prohibits specified domestic influence. This is historical legal context, with later changes and current application unverified; it proves no specific UAP programme or achieved access.
