Washington DC:
Can US President Donald Trump apply laws like Martial Law on 20 April? This question is coming in everyone’s mind because one of the first executive orders signed by Donald Trump after assuming the post of US President on January 20 was to declare ‘National Emergency’ on the southern border of the United States. There was also a clause in that order that President Trump ‘can implement the Rebellion Act of 1807 “. Possibly 90 days after the signing of the executive order i.e. on April 20, the army will be deployed on the US earth.
The 20 January executive order of President Trump provided that within 90 days from the date of this announcement, the Defense Secretary and Home Safety Secretary will give a joint report to the President about the Southern border conditions of the United States. Also, recommendations will be made regarding additional action. Which may be necessary for complete operational control over the southern border, including the implementation of the Revolt Act of 1807.
What is the Rebellion Act of 1807?
According to the Rebellion Act of 1807, the President of the United States may allow the deployment of Army and US National Guards to enforce the law in certain situations and circumstances. It gives the army the right to suppress any rebellion, rebellion or violence completely.
There is now less than a week left for the end of the 90 days period mentioned in the executive order of 20 January. In such a situation, it is being said that President Donald will implement the ‘Rebellion Act’; And will deploy the army on 20 April.
However, the Rebellion Act is somewhat different from the martial law. The martial law gives complete control to a military general of the administration and running the state affairs. Which is usually with the chief of the defense staff or the chief of the army. At the same time, in the Rebellion Act, the powers of the state and administration are with the US President. Which uses military powers to implement law and order.
