Title 10, Section 332 was enacted in 1861 at the request of President [[Abraham Lincoln]] to increase Presidential authority to use the militia and the regular army to suppress insurrections and enforce the laws. This law was the legal basis for waging the [[Civil War]]. This law allows the President to use federal troops on his own initiative and act on his own judgment without waiting for a request from a governor.
