Notice of November 8, 2016
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, the President issued Executive Order
13094, amending Executive Order 12938, to respond more
effectively to the worldwide threat of weapons of mass
destruction proliferation activities. On June 28, 2005,
the President issued Executive Order 13382, which,
inter alia, 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;
therefore, the national emergency first declared on
November 14, 1994, and extended in each subsequent
year, must continue. In accordance with section 202(d)
of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I
am continuing the national emergency declared in
Executive Order 12938.
This notice shall be published in the Federal Register
and transmitted to the Congress.
(Presidential Sig.)
THE WHITE HOUSE,
November 8, 2016.
