The United States Code (formally the Code of Laws of the United States of America)[1] is the official codification of the general and permanent federal statutes of the United States.[2] It contains 53 titles, which are organized into numbered sections.[3][4]

The U.S. Code is published by the U.S. House of Representatives' Office of the Law Revision Counsel. New editions are published every six years, with cumulative supplements issued each year.[2][5][6] The official version of these laws appears in the United States Statutes at Large, a chronological, uncodified compilation.
