                Notice of September 18, 2003


                Continuation of the National Emergency With
                Respect to

                Persons Who Commit, Threaten To Commit, or Support

                Terrorism

                On September 23, 2001, by Executive Order 13224, I
                declared a national emergency with respect to persons
                who commit, threaten to commit, or support terrorism,
                pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers
                Act (50 U.S.C. 1701-1706). I took this action to deal
                with the unusual and extraordinary threat to the
                national security, foreign policy, and economy of the
                United States constituted by the grave acts of
                terrorism and threats of terrorism committed by foreign
                terrorists, including the terrorist attacks in New
                York, Pennsylvania, and on the Pentagon committed on
                September 11, 2001, and the continuing and immediate
                threat of further attacks on United States nationals or
                the United States. Because the actions of these persons
                who commit, threaten to commit, or support terrorism
                continue to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to
                the national security, foreign policy, and economy of
                the United States, the national emergency declared on
                September 23, 2001, and the measures adopted on that
                date to deal with that emergency, must continue in
                effect beyond September 23, 2003. 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 persons who commit,
                threaten to commit, or support terrorism.

                This notice shall be published in the Federal Register
                and transmitted to the Congress.

                    (Presidential Sig.)B

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                    September 18, 2003.
