U.S. GOVERNMENT PUBLISHING OFFICE
59-011 WASHINGTON : 2025
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 declared with respect to Yemen in
Executive Order 13611 of May 16, 2012, is to continue in effect
beyond May 16, 2025.
The actions and policies of Ansar Allah, also known as the
Houthis, continue to threaten Yemen's peace, security, and
stability. These actions include obstructing the political
process in Yemen and blocking the implementation of the
agreement of November 23, 2011, between the Government of Yemen
and those in opposition to it, which provided for a peaceful
transition of power that meets the legitimate demands and
aspirations of the Yemeni people.
Therefore, I have determined that it is necessary to
continue the national emergency declared in Executive Order
13611 with respect to Yemen.
Donald J. Trump.
The White House, May 7, 2025.
Notice
----------
Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to Yemen
On May 16, 2012, by Executive Order 13611, the President
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 actions and policies of certain members of the Government
of Yemen and others that threatened Yemen's peace, security,
and stability. These actions include obstructing the political
process in Yemen and blocking the implementation of the
agreement of November 23, 2011, between the Government of Yemen
and those in opposition to it, which provided for a peaceful
transition of power that meets the legitimate demands and
aspirations of the Yemeni people.
The actions and policies of Ansar Allah, also known as the
Houthis, in threatening Yemen's peace, security, and stability
continue 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
13611 must continue in effect beyond May 16, 2025. 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 13611 with
respect to Yemen.
This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and
transmitted to the Congress.
Donald J. Trump.
The White House, May 7, 2025.
