Notice of October 11, 2024
Continuation of the National Emergency With
Respect to Significant Narcotics Traffickers Centered
in Colombia
On October 21, 1995, by Executive Order 12978, 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 actions of significant narcotics traffickers
centered in Colombia and the extreme level of violence,
corruption, and harm such actions cause in the United
States and abroad.
The actions of significant narcotics traffickers
centered in Colombia continue to pose an unusual and
extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign
policy, and economy of the United States and cause an
extreme level of violence, corruption, and harm in the
United States and abroad. For this reason, the national
emergency declared in Executive Order 12978 of October
21, 1995, must continue in effect beyond October 21,
2024. 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 narcotics traffickers centered
in Colombia declared in Executive Order 12978.
This notice shall be published in the Federal Register
and transmitted to the Congress.
(Presidential Sig.)
