To the Congress of the United States: 

Section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 

1622(d)) provides for the automatic termination of a national emergency unless, within 90 days before the anniversary date of its declaration, the President publishes in the Federal Register and transmits to the Congress a notice stating that the emergency is to continue in effect beyond the anniversary date. In accordance with this 

provision, I have sent to the Federal Register for publication the enclosed notice stating that the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13694 of April 1, 2015, as amended by Executive Order 

13757 of December 28, 2016, is to continue in effect beyond April 

1, 2019. 

Significant malicious cyber-enabled activities originating from or 

directed by persons located, in whole or in substantial part, outside 

the United States continue to pose an unusual and extraordinary 

threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the 

United States. Therefore, I have determined that it is necessary to 

continue the national emergency declared in Executive Order 

13694, as amended by Executive Order 13757, with respect to significant malicious cyber-enabled activities.

NOTICE

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, 2019. 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, as amended by Executive Order 13757. 

This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and transmitted to the Congress. 

DONALD J. TRUMP. 

THE WHITE HOUSE, March 26, 2019.
