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 protecting the Development Fund for Iraq and certain
other property in which Iraq has an interest, pursuant to the International
Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701–1706). The President took
this action 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.
In Executive Order 13315 of August 28, 2003, Executive Order 13350 of
July 29, 2004, Executive Order 13364 of November 29, 2004, and Executive
Order 13438 of July 17, 2007, the President modified the scope of the
national emergency declared in Executive Order 13303 and amended the
steps taken pursuant to it.

Because 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, the national emergency declared on May 22,
2003, and the measures adopted on that date, August 28, 2003, July 29,
2004, November 29, 2004, and July 17, 2007, to deal with that emergency
must continue in effect beyond May 22, 2009. 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.

Notice of May 19, 2009
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 protecting the
Development Fund for Iraq and certain other property in
which Iraq has an interest, pursuant to the
International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C.
1701-1706). The President took this action 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.
In Executive Order 13315 of August 28, 2003, Executive
Order 13350 of July 29, 2004, Executive Order 13364 of
November 29, 2004, and Executive Order 13438 of July
17, 2007, the President modified the scope of the
national emergency declared in Executive Order 13303
and amended the steps taken pursuant to it.
Because 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, the national emergency declared on
May 22, 2003, and the measures adopted on that date,
August 28, 2003, July 29, 2004, November 29, 2004, and
July 17, 2007, to deal with that emergency must
continue in effect beyond May 22, 2009. 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.
