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 significant 
transnational criminal organizations declared in Executive 
Order 13581 of July 24, 2011, under which additional steps were 
taken in Executive Order 13863 of March 15, 2019, is to 
continue in effect beyond July 24, 2025.
    The activities of significant transnational criminal 
organizations have reached such scope and gravity that they 
threaten the stability of international political and economic 
systems. Such organizations are becoming increasingly 
sophisticated and dangerous to the United States; they are 
increasingly entrenched in the operations of foreign 
governments and the international financial system, thereby 
weakening democratic institutions, degrading the rule of law, 
and undermining economic markets. These organizations 
facilitate and aggravate violent civil conflicts and 
increasingly facilitate the activities of other dangerous 
persons.
    Significant transnational criminal organizations 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 with respect to significant 
transnational criminal organizations declared in Executive 
Order 13581.

                              ----------                              


  Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to Significant 
                  Transnational Criminal Organizations

    On July 24, 2011, by Executive Order 13581, 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, foreign policy, and economy of the United States 
constituted by significant transnational criminal 
organizations.
    On March 15, 2019, by Executive Order 13863, the President 
took additional steps to deal with the national emergency with 
respect to significant transnational criminal organizations in 
view of the evolution of these organizations as well as the 
increasing sophistication of their activities, which threaten 
international political and economic systems and pose a direct 
threat to the safety and welfare of the United States and its 
citizens, and given the ability of these organizations to 
derive revenue through widespread illegal conduct, including 
acts of violence and abuse that exhibit a wanton disregard for 
human life as well as many other crimes enriching and 
empowering these organizations.
    Significant transnational criminal organizations continue 
to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national 
security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States. For 
these reasons, the national emergency declared in Executive 
Order 13581 of July 24, 2011, under which additional steps were 
taken in Executive Order 13863 of March 15, 2019, must continue 
in effect beyond July 24, 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 
with respect to significant transnational criminal 
organizations declared in Executive Order 13581.
    This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and 
transmitted to the Congress.
                                                   Donald J. Trump.
    The White House, July 21, 2025.
