Proposed Amendment to the Emergency Martial Law Act

Disclaimer
-------------------------------
[ Proposed Amendment ]
1. When appointing the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the President must appoint an individual suitable for the duties of a Martial Law Commander.
2. The military organization shall not place the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff in the same rank.
3. The current practice of the President appointing a Martial Law Commander at their own discretion shall be prohibited; the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff shall be appointed as the ex officio Martial Law Commander.
4. To protect the President's personnel authority... if the President must appoint the Chief of Naval Operations, the Chief of Air Staff, or an individual of a lower rank as the Martial Law Commander, the President must dismiss the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, promote them to General, and appoint them as the Martial Law Commander in their capacity as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
5. In cases where the Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff must succeed as the Chairman, or if the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff becomes vacant due to illness, accident, or death, the President may grant the authority of the Chairman to the Vice Chairman. In such cases, the President must also promote and appoint the Vice Chairman to the position of Chairman.
6. Measures must be established to prevent the President from appointing an individual with significantly low operational and command capabilities as the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. This poses a risk of certain defeat during wartime... which could constitute grounds for liability or impeachment against the President...
