Military Cooperation with Civilian Law Enforcement Agencies Act

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Military Cooperation with Civilian Law Enforcement Agencies Act is a United States federal law enacted in 1981 that allowed the military of the United States to cooperate with law enforcement agencies in their operations, including (among others) drug interdiction.

The Act is cited in the 1992 essay The Origins of the American Military Coup of 2012 as having set a precedent that the author, a United States Air Force officer, considered dangerous.

The Act was known as Public Law 97-86 and is codified at title 10 of the United States Code, section 471.
