Message to the Speaker of the House and President of the Senate on the Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to the Advancement by Countries of Concern in Sensitive Technologies and Products Critical for the Military, Intelligence, Surveillance, or Cyber-Enabled Capabilities of Such Countries

Dear Mr. Speaker : ( Dear Madam President : ) 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

Dear Mr. Speaker:   (Dear Madam President:)

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 the threat posed by the advancement by countries of concern in sensitive technologies and products critical for the military, intelligence, surveillance, or cyber-enabled capabilities of such countries declared in Executive Order 14105 of August 9, 2023, is to continue in effect beyond August 9, 2024.

Certain ongoing activities, such as the comprehensive, long-term strategies of countries of concern that direct, facilitate, or otherwise support advancements in sensitive technologies and products that are critical to such countries’ military, intelligence, surveillance, or cyber-enabled capabilities, significantly enhance such countries’ ability to conduct activities that threaten the national security of the United States.  As part of this ongoing strategy of advancing the development of these sensitive technologies and products, countries of concern are exploiting or have the ability to exploit certain United States outbound investments, including certain intangible benefits that often accompany United States investments and that help companies succeed.  Such investments risk exacerbating this threat to United States national security.

Therefore, I have determined that it is necessary to continue the national emergency declared in Executive Order 14105 with respect to the threat posed by the advancement by countries of concern in sensitive technologies and products critical for the military, intelligence, surveillance, or cyber-enabled capabilities of such countries.

                             Sincerely,

                             JOSEPH R. BIDEN JR.
