    The United States Commission on Civil Rights (hereinafter referred 

to as the ``Commission'') is a bipartisan agency of the executive branch 

of the Government. The predecessor agency to the present Commission was

amended by the Civil Rights Act of 1960, 74 Stat. 86; the Civil Rights 

Act of 1964, 78 Stat. 241; by 81 Stat. 582 (1967); by 84 Stat. 1356 

(1970); by 86 Stat. 813 (1972); and by the Civil Rights Act of 1978, 92 

Stat. 1067. The present Commission was established by the United States 

Commission on Civil Rights Act of 1983, 97 Stat. 1301, as amended by the 

Civil Rights Commission Amendments Act of 1994, 108 Stat. 4339. The 

statutes are codified in 42 U.S.C. 1975 through 1975d. (Hereinafter, the 

1994 Act will be referred to as ``the Act.'')
