                                           The White House,
                                       Washington, August 14, 2023.
Hon. Kevin McCarthy,
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 declared 
in Executive Order 13222 of August 17, 2001, in light of the 
expiration of the Export Administration Act of 1979, is to 
continue in effect for 1 year beyond August 17, 2023.
            Sincerely,
                                               Joseph R. Biden, Jr.

                                 Notice

                              ----------                              


 Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to Export Control 
                              Regulations

    On August 17, 2001, the President issued Executive Order 
13222 pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers 
Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.). In that order, 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 related to the expiration of 
the Export Administration Act of 1979, as amended (50 U.S.C. 
4601 et seq.). Because the implementation of certain sanctions 
authorities, including sections 11A, 11B, and 11C of such 
Export Administration Act of 1979, consistent with section 
1766(b) of Public Law 115-232, the Export Control Reform Act of 
2018 (50 U.S.C. 4801 note), is to be carried out under the 
International Emergency Economic Powers Act, the national 
emergency declared on August 17, 2001, must continue in effect 
beyond August 17, 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 13222, as amended by Executive Order 13637 of 
March 8, 2013.
    This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and 
transmitted to the Congress.

                                               Joseph R. Biden, Jr.
    The White House, August 14, 2023.
