    November 16, 2004.--Referred to the Committee on International 
                  Relations and ordered to be printed
                                           The White House,
                                      Washington, November 1, 2004.
Hon. J. Dennis Hastert,
Speaker of the House of Representatives,
Washington, DC.
    Dear Mr. Speaker: 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. Consistent with this provision, I have sent 
the enclosed notice, stating that the Sudan emergency is to 
continue in effect beyond November 3, 2004, to the Federal 
Register for publication. The most recent notice continuing 
this emergency was published in the Federal Register on October 
31, 2003 (68 FR 62211).
    The crisis between the United States and Sudan constituted 
by the actions and policies of the Government of Sudan that led 
to the declaration of a national emergency on November 3, 1997, 
has not been resolved. These actions and policies are hostile 
to U.S. interests and pose a continuing unusual and 
extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign 
policy of the United States. Therefore, I have determined that 
it is necessary to continue the national emergency declared 
with respect to Sudan and maintain in force the comprehensive 
sanctions against Sudan to respond to this threat.
            Sincerely,
                                                    George W. Bush.
                                 Notice

                              ----------                              


      Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to Sudan

    On November 3, 1997, by Executive Order 13067, the 
President declared a national emergency with respect to Sudan 
pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 
U.S.C. 1701-1706) to deal with the unusual and extraordinary 
threat to the national security and foreign policy of the 
United States constituted by the actions and policies of the 
Government of Sudan. Because the actions and policies of the 
Government of Sudan continue to pose an unusual and 
extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign 
policy of the United States, the national emergency declared on 
November 3, 1997, and the measures adopted on that date to deal 
with that emergency must continue in effect beyond November 3, 
2004. Therefore, consistent 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 Sudan.
    This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and 
transmitted to the Congress.

                                                    George W. Bush.
    The White House, November 1, 2004.
