                Notice of January 12, 2026

                
Continuation of the National Emergency With 
                Respect to Energy

                On January 20, 2025, by Executive Order 14156, I 
                declared a national emergency pursuant to the National 
                Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.) (NEA) to deal 
                with the unusual and extraordinary threat to the 
                national security, foreign policy, and economy of the 
                United States constituted by the United States' 
                insufficient energy and critical minerals (energy) 
                production, transportation, refining, and generation.

                The United States continues to need a reliable, 
                diversified, and affordable supply of energy to drive 
                our Nation's manufacturing, transportation, 
                agriculture, and defense industries, and to sustain the 
                basics of modern life and military preparedness. 
                However, our Nation faces inadequate energy supply and 
                infrastructure, due not only to the harmful and 
                shortsighted policies of the previous administration, 
                but also to many harmful State and local policies, 
                especially in our Nation's Northeast and West Coast. By 
                inhibiting development of our Nation's domestic supply 
                of energy, these policies worsened high energy prices 
                and undermined grid reliability. Without robust 
                development of reliable domestic energy resources, we 
                risk leaving our Nation vulnerable to hostile foreign 
                actors, jeopardizing our Nation's core national defense 
                and security needs, stalling technological innovation, 
                and deteriorating grid reliability.

                The circumstances related to this emergency continue 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 in Executive Order 14156 of January 20, 2025, 
                must continue in effect beyond January 20, 2026. 
                Therefore, in accordance with section 202(d) of the NEA 
                (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing for 1 year the 
                national emergency declared in Executive Order 14156.
