AMENDMENT 565
Section 3A1.4 is repromulgated without change.
Reason for Amendment: Section 730 of the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, Pub. L. 104-132, 110 Stat. 1303, requires the Commission to amend the sentencing guidelines so that the adjustment in §3A1.4 (relating to international terrorism) applies more broadly to "Federal crimes of terrorism," as defined in 18 U.S.C. § 2332b(g). Pursuant to this provision, the Commission promulgated §3A1.4 (Terrorism) as an emergency amendment, effective November 1, 1996. Under the terms of the congressionally granted authority, this amendment is temporary unless repromulgated in the next amendment cycle under regularly applicable amendment procedures. See Pub. L. No. 100-182, § 21, set forth as an editorial note under 28 U.S.C. § 994. This amendment repromulgates §3A1.4, as set forth in the May 1, 1997 Revised Supplement to the 1995 Guidelines Manual.
Effective Date: The effective date of this amendment is November 1, 1997.
