 CONTINUATION OF THE NATIONAL EMERGENCY WITH RESPECT TO SUDAN--MESSAGE 
      FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES (H. DOC. NO. 114-71)

  The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Jenkins of West Virginia) laid before 
the House the following message from the President of the United 
States; which was read and, together with the accompanying papers, 
referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs 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 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.
