Notice of September 18, 2003
Continuation of the National Emergency With
Respect to
Persons Who Commit, Threaten To Commit, or Support
Terrorism
On September 23, 2001, by Executive Order 13224, I
declared a national emergency with respect to persons
who commit, threaten to commit, or support terrorism,
pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers
Act (50 U.S.C. 1701-1706). I took this action to deal
with the unusual and extraordinary threat to the
national security, foreign policy, and economy of the
United States constituted by the grave acts of
terrorism and threats of terrorism committed by foreign
terrorists, including the terrorist attacks in New
York, Pennsylvania, and on the Pentagon committed on
September 11, 2001, and the continuing and immediate
threat of further attacks on United States nationals or
the United States. Because the actions of these persons
who commit, threaten to commit, or support terrorism
continue to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to
the national security, foreign policy, and economy of
the United States, the national emergency declared on
September 23, 2001, and the measures adopted on that
date to deal with that emergency, must continue in
effect beyond September 23, 2003. Therefore, consistent
with section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50
U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing for 1 year the
national emergency with respect to persons who commit,
threaten to commit, or support terrorism.
This notice shall be published in the Federal Register
and transmitted to the Congress.
(Presidential Sig.)B
THE WHITE HOUSE,
September 18, 2003.
