This joint resolution proposes to terminate a national emergency that was declared by the President on July 30, 2025 . The emergency was specifically established through Executive Order 14323 , as referenced in the Federal Register. Congress is exercising its authority under section 202 of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622) to end this presidential declaration. If enacted, this resolution would effectively revoke the powers and authorities associated with the President's finding of a national emergency from that date, nullifying its continued effect.
