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, by Executive Order 13094, the President amended Executive
Order 12938 to respond more effectively to the worldwide threat of weapons
of mass destruction proliferation activities. On June 28, 2005, by Executive
Order 13382, the President, among other things, 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. For this reason, the national
emergency declared in Executive Order 12938 of November 14, 1994, with
respect to the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and the means
of delivering such weapons must continue beyond November 14, 2023.
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 12938, as amended.
THE WHITE HOUSE,
November 1, 2023.
