History
From its inception as part of the first issue of the U.S. Code in 1926, Title 14 has contained laws concerning the U.S. Coast Guard and been entitled "Coast Guard".{{cite book| title = United States Code (1926)| url = https://home.heinonline.org/| year = 1926| publisher = Government Printing Office| location = Washington, DC| page = 339 }} On August 4, 1949, the title was enacted as a positive law title.{{ cite web| title = Aug. 4, 1949, ch.393, 63 Stat. 495 | url = https://www.loc.gov/law/help/statutes-at-large/81st-congress/session-1/c81s1ch393.pdf}}{{cite book| title = United States Code (1948), Supp. III| url = https://home.heinonline.org/| year = 1950| publisher = Government Printing Office| location = Washington, DC| page = 1225 }} In the 115th Congress, {{USBill|115|H.R.|1726}} was introduced to recodify Title 14.
