                 Notice of May 11, 2021
                
                Continuation of the National Emergency With
                 Respect to Securing the Information and Communications
                 Technology and Services Supply Chain
                 On May 15, 2019, by Executive Order 13873, the
                 President declared a national emergency pursuant to the
                 International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C.
                 1701 et seq.) to deal with the unusual and
                 extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign
                 policy, and economy of the United States constituted by
                 the unrestricted acquisition and use of certain
                 information and communications technology and services
                 transactions.
                 The unrestricted acquisition or use in the United
                 States of information and communications technology or
                 services designed, developed, manufactured, or supplied
                 by persons owned by, controlled by, or subject to the
                 jurisdiction or direction of foreign adversaries
                 augments the ability of these foreign adversaries to
                 create and exploit vulnerabilities in information and
                 communications technology or services, with potentially
                 catastrophic effects. This threat continues to pose an
                 unusual and extraordinary threat to the national
                 security, foreign policy, and economy of the United
                 States. For this reason, the national emergency
                 declared on May 15, 2019, must continue in effect
                 beyond May 15, 2021. 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 Executive Order 13873
                 with respect to securing the information and
                 communications technology and services supply chain.
                 This notice shall be published in the Federal Register
                 and transmitted to the Congress.
                
                
                 (Presidential Sig.)
                 THE WHITE HOUSE,
                 May 11, 2021.
