This review is for Renee the call center phone clerk in Ohio who assisted me this morning 4/6/15.(around 12:00 pm ohio time) She did a so so to fair job in assisting me with my questions in regards to acquiring AAA or Costco discount for my windshield repair even though we were states apart.
Presidential Succession Act. The Presidential Succession Act establishes who shall exercise the powers and duties of the office of President of the United States in the event that neither a President nor Vice President is able to discharge the powers and duties of the office.. The current Act was adopted in 1947 and is codified at 3 U.S.C. Â§ 19.
The Presidential Succession Act of 1947, signed into law by President Harry S. Truman, added the Speaker of the House and President pro tempore back in the line, but switched the two from the 1792 order. It remains the sequence used today. For the Speaker or the Senate President pro tempore to become Acting President, they must resign their position, at which point they are no longer in the line of succession. 2  This is seen by some to form a constitutional paradox.
