                Notice of September 15, 2021

                
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, 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 
                the grave acts of terrorism and threats of terrorism 
                committed by foreign terrorists, including the 
                terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, in New York 
                and Pennsylvania and against the Pentagon, and the 
                continuing and immediate threat of further attacks 
                against United States nationals or the United States.

                On September 9, 2019, the President signed Executive 
                Order 13886 to strengthen and consolidate sanctions to 
                combat the continuing threat posed by international 
                terrorism and to take additional steps to deal with the 
                national emergency declared in Executive Order 13224, 
                as amended.

                The actions of persons who commit, threaten to commit, 
                or support terrorism continue to pose an unusual and 
                extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign 
                policy, and economy of the United States. For this 
                reason, the national emergency declared in Executive 
                Order 13224 of September 23, 2001, as amended, and the 
                measures adopted to deal with that emergency, must 
                continue in effect beyond September 23, 2021. 
                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 declared in Executive Order 13224, as 
                amended.
