Declarations under the National Emergencies
Act, Part 1: Declarations Currently in Effect

Updated February 28, 2019
On February 15, 2019, President Trump declared a national emergency under the National Emergencies
Act
to aid in the construction of physical barriers along the U.S. border with Mexico. Besides raising
questions about whether a national emergency declaration can facilitate the construction of such barriers
(a topic discussed in a related Sidebar), the declaration has also prompted more general interest in the
National Emergencies Act, including in other emergencies declared under the Act that are currently in
effect.
This Sidebar—the first of a two-part series identifying declarations issued under the National
Emergencies Act, provides a Table identifying national emergency declarations that are currently in
effect as of February 15, 2019
(the companion Sidebar, identifying declarations no longer in effect, can
be found here). The Table notes when later Executive Orders or Presidential Proclamations modified the
initial executive action in which a national emergency was declared. The Table also lists statutory
authorities cited to support the initial Executive Order or Presidential Proclamation, along with statutory
authorities expressly cited in those documents as the legal basis for actions taken in response to the
declared emergency. Finally, the Table identifies the date when the declared emergency was last extended
or, if it has not been extended, the date when it is currently set to expire.
This list was generated by searching the Presidential Documents database on Westlaw for citations to the
National Emergencies Act and the terms emergency and declare or proclaim, and by reviewing
presidential actions posted on the White House website on February 15, 2019 following announcement of
the declaration that day. To determine the status of each declared national emergency, we consulted the
Executive Orders Disposition Tables, produced by the National Archives, and searched the Federal
Register
database on Westlaw for the Executive Order or Presidential Proclamation number and variations
and combinations of the terms contin! or revok! or rescind! or termin!.
In part because there is little case law on the matter and the Executive has arguably taken conflicting
views
over the years on the Act's relationship with other statutes, this Sidebar identifies only those
Executive Orders and Presidential Proclamations that expressly invoke the National Emergencies Act.

1 This column only lists statutes expressly identified in the initial Executive Order or Presidential Proclamation as providing the
basis for a specific substantive provision within the executive action. For example, the column does not identify United Nations
Security Council Resolutions cited in support of certain actions. Additionally, other sources of authority that might be relied upon
as the basis for a particular provision within the Order or Proclamation are not identified. For instance, Executive Order No.
13,694
provides that covered persons shall be denied entry into the United States; though not expressly providing that such denial
is pursuant to Section 212(f) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, the order cross-references a Presidential Proclamation that
relies upon to Section 212(f) as its legal basis. Neither the earlier Presidential Proclamation nor the statutory provision cited
therein is listed in the Table.
