The National Security Council was established by the National Security Act of 1947. The National Security Council advises the president with respect to the integration of domestic, foreign, and military policies relating to national security. The National Security Council is the principal forum for the consideration of national security policy issues requiring a presidential decision.
The National Security Council is chaired by the President. Its statutory members, in addition to the President, are the Vice President and the Secretaries of State and Defense. The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is the statutory military advisor to the Council, and the Director of Central Intelligence is the intelligence advisor. The Secretary of the Treasury, the U.S. Representative to the United Nations, the Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs, the Assistant to the President for Economic policy, and the Chief of Staff to the President are invited to all meetings of the Council.
