U.S. GOVERNMENT PUBLISHING OFFICE

The White House,
Washington, September 6, 2024.
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.
