What is the Presidential Succession Act of 1947?
Under the 1947 act any per-son serving as acting President can be sup-planted or bumped from the acting presi-dency by an officer high-er in the order of succession. Finally, the act req-uires that any Cab-inet officer, by serving as act-ing President, auto-matically vacates his Cabi-net position.
