Washington, D.C.— House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.) and Regulatory Reform, Commercial and Antitrust Law Subcommittee Chairman Tom Marino (R-Pa.), both appointed as conferees by House Speaker Paul D.

Chairman Goodlatte: As I previously stated, the Office of the Law Revision Counsel must occasionally undertake editorial reclassification projects to reorganize areas of law that have outgrown their original boundaries, or to eliminate organizational units that are no longer efficient. H.R. 2831 reflects yet another of the Office’s editorial reclassification efforts, and I thank Ranking Member Conyers (D-Mich.) for cosponsoring this bill as well. H.R. 2831 will update statutory references to provisions classified to title 50.

In 1926, when the organizational structure of the United States Code was established, no separate title for voting and elections was created.
