US bill enables martial law?

Date October 28, 2006

Slashdot posted a story recently about a US law passed which would enable the President to declare martial law.  I thought this was already possible.  In any case, I’m mirroring the text of it here for people to read - it was originally from http://www.govtrack.us/congress/billtext.xpd?bill=h109-5122 but apparently that’s getting really slow right now.
