President Extends National Emergency on Technology Supply Chain Security

The President has extended the national emergency declared on May 15, 2019, regarding the security of the information and communications technology (ICT) supply chain. The extension keeps the emergency in effect for one year, pushing the expiration date to May 15, 2027.

Why it matters: This is primarily an administrative renewal. It does not change the rules or create new restrictions. It preserves the existing legal framework that allows the government to review or block certain technology transactions involving foreign entities. If the President did not sign this, the emergency declaration would have lapsed, and the specific authorities granted under Executive Order 13873 would have expired.

Who it affects

• Companies that rely on information and communications technology from foreign suppliers, particularly those subject to government review.
