How this service works
The current text of a US Code section by title and section number: the statutory text, its source credit, the chapter it sits in, the edition it comes from and the date it is current through.
Output
Returns the current statutory text of the specified US Code section, along with the source credit (legislative history citation), the chapter it belongs to, the edition of the US Code, and the date through which the text is current. Optionally includes editorial and statutory notes, which can be substantially longer than the section text itself.
Example use cases
Legal research on federal statute
“What does Title 42, Section 1983 of the US Code currently say? I need the full statutory text and the source credit for a civil rights brief I'm working on.”
Compliance check for copyright law
“Can you fetch the current text of Title 17, Section 107 — the fair use provision — from the US Code so I can verify exactly what the statute says about permissible uses?”
Tax law provision lookup
“Look up Title 26, Section 501 of the US Code for me — I need the exact statutory language on tax-exempt organizations, and please include any editorial notes.”
