CONTINUATION OF THE NATIONAL EMERGENCY WITH RESPECT TO ENERGY
__________
MESSAGE
from
THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES
transmitting
A NOTICE THAT THE NATIONAL EMERGENCY WITH RESPECT TO ENERGY DECLARED IN
EXECUTIVE ORDER 14156 OF JANUARY 20, 2025, IS TO CONTINUE IN EFFECT
BEYOND JANUARY 20, 2026, PURSUANT TO 50 U.S.C. 1622(d); PUBLIC LAW 94-
412, SEC. 202(d); (90 STAT. 1255)
January 13, 2026.--Message and accompanying papers referred to the
Committees on Armed Services, Energy and Commerce, Financial Services,
Natural Resources, and Transportation and Infrastructure and ordered to
be printed
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 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 energy declared in
Executive Order 14156 of January 20, 2025, is to continue in
effect beyond January 20, 2026.
The United States continues to need a reliable,
diversified, and affordable supply of energy to drive our
Nation's manufacturing, transportation, agriculture, and
defense industries, and to sustain the basics of modern life
and military preparedness. However, our Nation faces inadequate
energy supply and infrastructure, due not only to the harmful
and shortsighted policies of the previous administration, but
also to many harmful State and local policies, especially in
our Nation's Northeast and West Coast. These policies worsened
high energy prices that devastate Americans and undermined grid
reliability with insufficient development of our Nation's
domestic supply of energy. Without robust development of
domestic energy resources, we further risk leaving our Nation
vulnerable to hostile foreign actors, jeopardizing our Nation's
core national defense and security needs, stalling
technological innovation, and deteriorating grid reliability.
The circumstances related to this emergency 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
14156 with respect to energy.
Donald J. Trump.
The White House, January 12 , 2026.
Notice
----------
Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to Energy
On January 20, 2025, by Executive Order 14156, I declared a
national emergency pursuant to the National Emergencies Act (50
U.S.C. 1601 et. seq.) (NEA) to deal with the unusual and
extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy,
and economy of the United States constituted by the United
States' insufficient energy and critical minerals (energy)
production, transportation, refining, and generation.
The United States continues to need a reliable,
diversified, and affordable supply of energy to drive our
Nation's manufacturing, transportation, agriculture, and
defense industries, and to sustain the basics of modern life
and military preparedness. However, our Nation faces inadequate
energy supply and infrastructure, due not only to the harmful
and shortsighted policies of the previous administration, but
also to many harmful State and local policies, especially in
our Nation's Northeast and West Coast. By inhibiting
development of our Nation's domestic supply of energy, these
policies worsened high energy prices and undermined grid
reliability. Without robust development of reliable domestic
energy resources, we risk leaving our Nation vulnerable to
hostile foreign actors, jeopardizing our Nation's core national
defense and security needs, stalling technological innovation,
and deteriorating grid reliability.
The circumstances related to this emergency 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 in Executive Order
14156 of January 20, 2025, must continue in effect beyond
January 20, 2026. Therefore, in accordance with section 202(d)
of the NEA (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing for 1 year the
national emergency declared in Executive Order 14156.
This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and
transmitted to the Congress.
Donald J. Trump.
The White House, January 12, 2026.
