                Notice of May 7, 2026

                
Continuation of the National Emergency With 
                Respect to Yemen

                On May 16, 2012, by Executive Order 13611, the 
                President declared a national emergency pursuant to the 
                International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 
                1701 et seq.) to deal with the unusual and 
                extraordinary threat to the national security and 
                foreign policy of the United States constituted by the 
                actions and policies of certain members of the 
                Government of Yemen and others that threatened Yemen's 
                peace, security, and stability. These actions include 
                obstructing the political process in Yemen and blocking 
                the implementation of the agreement of November 23, 
                2011, between the Government of Yemen and those in 
                opposition to it, which provided for a peaceful 
                transition of power that meets the legitimate demands 
                and aspirations of the Yemeni people.

                The actions and policies of Ansar Allah, also known as 
                the Houthis, in threatening Yemen's peace, security, 
                and stability continue to pose an unusual and 
                extraordinary threat to the national security and 
                foreign policy of the United States. For this reason, 
                the national emergency declared in Executive Order 
                13611 must continue in effect beyond May 16, 2026. 
                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 13611 with respect to Yemen.

                This notice shall be published in the Federal Register 
                and transmitted to the Congress.

                    (Presidential Sig.)

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                    May 7, 2026.
