  November 13, 2001.--Message and accompanying papers referred to the 
     Committee on International Relations and ordered to be printed
To the Congress of the United States:
    Section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 
1622(d)) provides for the automatic termination of a national 
emergency unless, 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 the enclosed 
notice to the Federal Register for publication. The notice 
states that the national emergency with respect to the unusual 
and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign 
policy, and economy of the United States posed by the 
proliferation of nuclear, biological, and chemical weapons 
(weapons of mass destruction) and the means of delivering such 
weapons declared by Executive Order 12938 on November 14, 1994, 
is to continue in effect beyond November 14, 2001. The most 
recent notice continuing this emergency was published in the 
Federal Register on November 13, 2000 (65 Fed. Reg. 68063).
    The proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and the 
means of delivering them continues to pose an unusual and 
extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, 
and economy of the United States. Therefore, I have determined 
that it is necessary to continue the national emergency 
declared on November 14, 1994, regarding weapons of mass 
destruction, beyond November 14, 2001.

                                                    George W. Bush.
    The White House, November 9, 2001.
                                 Notice

                              ----------                              


    Continuation of Emergency Regarding Weapons of Mass Destruction

    On November 14, 1994, by Executive Order 12938, President 
Clinton declared a national emergency with respect to the 
unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, 
foreign policy, and economy of the United States posed by the 
proliferation of nuclear, biological, and chemical weapons 
(weapons of mass destruction) and the means of delivering such 
weapons. Because the proliferation of weapons of mass 
destruction and the means of delivering them continues to pose 
an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, 
foreign policy, and economy of the United States, the national 
emergency first declared on November 14, 1994, and extended on 
November 14, 1995, November 12, 1996, November 13, 1997, 
November 12, 1998, November 10, 1999, and November 12, 2000, 
must continue in effect beyond November 14, 2001. 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 
declared in Executive Order 12938.
    This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and 
transmitted to the Congress.
                                                    George W. Bush.
    The White House, November 9, 2001.
