                 Notice of February 13, 2020
                
                Continuation of the National Emergency With
                 Respect to the Southern Border of the United States
                 On February 15, 2019, by Proclamation 9844, I declared
                 a national emergency concerning the southern border of
                 the United States to deal with the border security and
                 humanitarian crisis that threatens core national
                 security interests.
                 The ongoing border security and humanitarian crisis at
                 the southern border of the United States continues to
                 threaten our national security, including the security
                 of the American people. The executive branch has taken
                 steps to address the crisis, but further action is
                 needed to address the humanitarian crisis and to
                 control unlawful migration and the flow of narcotics
                 and criminals across the southern border of the United
                 States.
                 For these reasons, the national emergency declared on
                 February 15, 2019, and the measures adopted on that
                 date to respond to that emergency, must continue in
                 effect beyond February 15, 2020. Therefore, 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
                 Proclamation 9844 concerning the southern border of the
                 United States.
                 This notice shall be published in the Federal Register
                 and transmitted to the Congress.
                
                
                 (Presidential Sig.)
                 THE WHITE HOUSE,
                 February 13, 2020.
