The transfer of power from one administration to the next marks a significant moment in U.S. history. The Presidential Transition Acts of 1963 and 2015 give the General Services Administration (GSA) a prominent role in this process. They authorize the Administrator of GSA to provide the President-elect and the Vice-President-elect the services and facilities needed to assume their official duties. | |||
The Presidential Transition Act of 1963, amended by The Presidential Transitions Effectiveness Act of 1988, The Presidential Transition Act of 2000, The Presidential Transition Improvements Act of 2015, and the Presidential Records Act (PRA) govern Presidential transitions. | |||
Records created by the President-elect's transition team are not considered Presidential records. | |||
