§ 203. Prospective Federal Jurisdiction.
(1) Inchoate Offenses. Federal jurisdiction exists with respect to attempt,
solicitation or conspiracy when a circumstance giving rise to federal jurisdiction
over such inchoate offense has occurred or would occur if the principal offense
were committed.
(2) Completed Offenses. Federal jurisdiction over a completed offense exists,
although no circumstance otherwise giving rise to federal jurisdiction has yet
occurred, if the actor took a substantial step in connection with such offense
designed or likely to establish federal jurisdiction.
