Dossier Executive executive action 10-sep-2026
Presidential order or directive published in the Federal Register.

Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to Certain Terrorist Attacks

Key claim: The President is extending for another year the national emergency first declared after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, so related emergency powers stay in effect.

Abstract

(Presidential Document · Executive Office of the President)

Why this matters

The post-9/11 national emergency underpins a set of standing executive authorities that would lapse absent annual renewal, so each continuation is the practical mechanism by which those counterterrorism powers remain operative. Routine renewals attract little attention but are the reason the emergency framework has persisted for more than two decades, and they intersect with broader debates over National Emergencies Act reform.
