Presidential Transition Act

The Presidential Transition Act is a U.S. law that establishes procedures for the smooth transfer of power from one president to the next. When a new president is elected, this law provides resources, funding, and support for the transition team to prepare for taking office. It ensures that the incoming administration can access important government information and resources to start effectively. The Act aims to minimize disruptions and maintain continuity in government during a critical period, ultimately reinforcing stability in American democracy.
