                          PRESIDENTIAL MESSAGE

                                 ______
                                 

REPORT RELATIVE TO THE CONTINUATION OF THE NATIONAL EMERGENCY RELATIVE 
 TO THE ACTIONS AND POLICIES OF THE GOVERNMENT OF SUDAN AS DECLARED IN 
            EXECUTIVE ORDER 13067 OF NOVEMBER 3, 1997--PM 30

  The PRESIDING OFFICER laid before the Senate the following message 
from the President of the United States, together with an accompanying 
report; which was referred to the Committee on Banking, Housing, and 
Urban Affairs:

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 Sudan is to 
continue in effect beyond November 3, 2015.
  The crisis constituted by the actions and policies of the Government 
of Sudan that led to the declaration of a national emergency in 
Executive Order 13067 of November 3, 1997, and the expansion of that 
emergency in Executive Order 13400 of April 26, 2006, and with respect 
to which additional steps were taken in Executive Order 13412 of 
October 13, 2006, has not been resolved. These actions and policies 
continue 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 13067 with respect to Sudan.
                                                        Barack Obama.  
The White House, October 28, 2015.
