Section 1. Amendment

(a) In general–

The first section and section 2 of Public Law 93–435 (48 U.S.C. 1705, 1706) are amended by inserting “the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands,” after “Guam,” each place it appears.

(b) References to date of enactment–

For the purposes of the amendment made by subsection (a), each reference in Public Law 93–435 to the “date of enactment” shall be considered to be a reference to the date of the enactment of this section.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it is a work of the United States federal government (see 17 U.S.C. 105).
