Hon. Mike Johnson,
Speaker of the House of Representatives,
Washington, DC.
    Dear Mr. Speaker: 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 
prior to 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 with 
respect to Ethiopia declared in Executive Order 14046 of 
September 17, 2021, is to continue in effect beyond September 
17, 2024.
    The situation in and in relation to northern Ethiopia, 
which has been marked by activities that threaten the peace, 
security, and stability of Ethiopia and the greater Horn of 
Africa region, continues to pose an unusual and extraordinary 
threat to the national security and foreign policy of the 
United States.
    Therefore, I have determined that it is necessary to 
continue the national emergency declared in Executive Order 
14046 with respect to Ethiopia.
            Sincerely,
                                               Joseph R. Biden, Jr.

                                 Notice

                              ----------                              


    Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to Ethiopia

    On September 17, 2021, by Executive Order 14046, I declared 
a national emergency pursuant to the International Emergency 
Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) to deal with the 
unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and 
foreign policy of the United States constituted by the 
situation in and in relation to northern Ethiopia.
    The situation in and in relation to northern Ethiopia, 
which has been marked by activities that threaten the peace, 
security, and stability of Ethiopia and the greater Horn of 
Africa region, continues to pose an unusual and extraordinary 
threat to the national security and foreign policy of the 
United States. For this reason, the national emergency declared 
in Executive Order 14046 of September 17, 2021, must continue 
in effect beyond September 17, 2024. 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 14046 with respect to Ethiopia.
    This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and 
transmitted to the Congress.

                                               Joseph R. Biden, Jr.
    The White House, September 6, 2024.
