                Notice of September 21, 2006

                
Continuation of the National Emergency With 
                Respect to Persons Who Commit, Threaten To Commit, or 
                Support Terrorism

                 On September 23, 2001, by Executive Order 13224, I 
                declared a national emergency with respect to persons 
                who commit, threaten to commit, or support terrorism, 
                pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers 
                Act (50 U.S.C. 1701-1706). I took this action to deal 
                with the unusual and extraordinary threat to the 
                national security, foreign policy, and economy of the 
                United States constituted by the grave acts of 
                terrorism and threats of terrorism committed by foreign 
                terrorists, including the terrorist attacks in New 
                York, in Pennsylvania, and against the Pentagon of 
                September 11, 2001, and the continuing and immediate 
                threat of further attacks against United States 
                nationals or the United States. Because the actions of 
                these persons who commit, threaten to commit, or 
                support terrorism continue to pose an unusual and 
                extraordinary threat to the United States, the national 
                emergency declared on September 23, 2001, and the 
                measures adopted on that date to deal with that 
                emergency, must continue in effect beyond September 23, 
                2006. 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 persons who commit, threaten to commit, or 
                support terrorism.

                This notice shall be published in the Federal Register 
                and transmitted to the Congress.

                    (Presidential Sig.)B

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                    September 21, 2006
