Editorial Notes

Amendments

2014-Subsecs. (a), (b). Pub. L. 113–235 substituted "Director of the Government Publishing Office" for "Public Printer".

1974-Pub. L. 93–314 included subscriptions and postage rate in section catchline, and inserted provisions in text authorizing sale of subscriptions, requiring price for subscriptions to be paid in advance, and directing that the Congressional Record shall be entitled to be mailed at the same rates of postage at which any newspaper or other periodical publication, with a legitimate list of paid subscribers, is entitled to be mailed.

1 So in original. Probably should be "Director of the Government Publishing Office's".
