SEC. 2. PURPOSES; RESTATEMENT DOES NOT CHANGE 
MEANING OR EFFECT OF EXISTING LAW. 
(a) PURPOSES.—The purposes of this Act are— 
(1) to make revisions in title 51, United States 
Code, as necessary to keep the title current; and 
(2) to make technical amendments to improve 
the United States Code. 
(b) RESTATEMENT DOES NOT CHANGE MEANING OR 
EFFECT OF EXISTING LAW.— 
(1) IN GENERAL.—The restatement of existing 
law enacted by this Act does not change the mean-
ing or effect of the existing law. The restatement in-
corporates in title 51, United States Code, various 
provisions that were enacted separately over a period 
of years, reorganizing them, conforming style and 
terminology, modernizing obsolete language, and cor-
recting drafting errors. These changes serve to re-
move ambiguities, contradictions, and other imper-
fections, but they do not change the meaning or ef-
fect of the existing law or impair the precedential 
value of earlier judicial decisions or other interpreta-
tions. 
(2) RULE OF CONSTRUCTION.— 
(A) IN
GENERAL.—Notwithstanding the 
plain meaning rule or other rules of statutory 
construction, a change in wording made in the
