                Notice of May 18, 2016

                
Continuation of the National Emergency With 
                Respect to the Stabilization of Iraq

                On May 22, 2003, by Executive Order 13303, the 
                President declared a national emergency pursuant to the 
                International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 
                1701-1706) to deal with the unusual and extraordinary 
                threat to the national security and foreign policy of 
                the United States posed by obstacles to the orderly 
                reconstruction of Iraq, the restoration and maintenance 
                of peace and security in the country, and the 
                development of political, administrative, and economic 
                institutions in Iraq.

                The obstacles to the orderly reconstruction of Iraq, 
                the restoration and maintenance of peace and security 
                in the country, and the development of political, 
                administrative, and economic institutions in Iraq 
                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 13303, as modified in scope 
                and relied upon for additional steps taken in Executive 
                Order 13315 of August 28, 2003, Executive Order 13350 
                of July 29, 2004, Executive Order 13364 of November 29, 
                2004, Executive Order 13438 of July 17, 2007, and 
                Executive Order 13668 of May 27, 2014, must continue in 
                effect beyond May 22, 2016. 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 with respect to the stabilization of 
                Iraq declared in Executive Order 13303.

                This notice shall be published in the Federal Register 
                and transmitted to the Congress.
                
                
                    (Presidential Sig.)

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                    May 18, 2016.
