Notice of November 10, 2021
Continuation of the National Emergency With
Respect to the Proliferation of Weapons of Mass
Destruction
On November 14, 1994, by Executive Order 12938, the
President declared a national emergency with respect to
the unusual and extraordinary threat to the national
security, foreign policy, and economy of the United
States posed by the proliferation of nuclear,
biological, and chemical weapons (weapons of mass
destruction) and the means of delivering such weapons.
On July 28, 1998, by Executive Order 13094, the
President amended Executive Order 12938 to respond more
effectively to the worldwide threat of weapons of mass
destruction proliferation activities. On June 28, 2005,
by Executive Order 13382, the President, among other
things, further amended Executive Order 12938 to
improve our ability to combat proliferation. The
proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and the
means of delivering them continues to pose an unusual
and extraordinary threat to the national security,
foreign policy, and economy of the United States. For
this reason, the national emergency declared in
Executive Order 12938 of November 14, 1994, with
respect to the proliferation of weapons of mass
destruction and the means of delivering such weapons
must continue beyond November 14, 2021. Therefore, in
accordance with section 202(d) of the National
Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing
for 1 year the national emergency declared in Executive
Order 12938, as amended.
This notice shall be published in the Federal Register
and transmitted to the Congress.
