Notice of March 29, 2017
Continuation of the National Emergency With
Respect to Significant Malicious Cyber-Enabled
Activities
On April 1, 2015, by Executive Order 13694, 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, foreign policy, and
economy of the United States constituted by the
increasing prevalence and severity of malicious cyber-
enabled activities originating from, or directed by
persons located, in whole or in substantial part,
outside the United States. On December 28, 2016, the
President issued Executive Order 13757 to take
additional steps to address the national emergency
declared in Executive Order 13694.
These significant malicious cyber-enabled activities
continue 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 on April 1, 2015, must continue in
effect beyond April 1, 2017. 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 13694.
This notice shall be published in the Federal Register
and transmitted to the Congress.
(Presidential Sig.)
THE WHITE HOUSE,
March 29, 2017.
