Full Title: Notice Regarding the Continuation of the National Emergency with Respect to Transnational Criminal Organizations
Issued on: July 20, 2018
On July 24, 2011, by Executive Order 13581, the President declared a national emergency with respect to transnational criminal organizations pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701-1706) to deal with the unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States constituted by the activities of significant transnational criminal organizations.
The activities of significant transnational criminal organizations have reached such scope and gravity that they threaten the stability of international political and economic systems. Such organizations are increasingly sophisticated and dangerous to the United States; they are increasingly entrenched in the operations of foreign governments and the international financial system, thereby weakening democratic institutions, degrading the rule of law, and undermining economic markets. These organizations facilitate and aggravate violent civil conflicts and increasingly facilitate the activities of other dangerous persons.
The activities of significant transnational criminal organizations 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 13581 of July 24, 2011, and the measures adopted on that date to deal with that emergency, must continue in effect beyond July 24, 2018. 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 with respect to transnational criminal organizations declared in Executive Order 13581.
This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and transmitted to the Congress.
DONALD J. TRUMP
THE WHITE HOUSE,
July 20, 2018.
NOTE - this EO does not reference 12/20/17 EO.
Rather it references Hussein EO # 13581 of July 24, 2011
Yes, it just continues the act to fight international crime.
Thank you for the link.
Just watch “them” set their hair on fire over THIS!
The headlines might be, “Trump unilaterally declares national emergency!!”
or
“Trump admits international crime spinning out of control due to his cruel tariff measures!!” (Women and children hardest hit...)
or some other such twaddle. Watch it happen.

Want to know what the Democrats are up to? Just listen to what they accuse us of doing! They always project!
Totally true.

...The United States is in a state of emergency: 28 national ones and many more local. This might come as a surprise, but it isn’t new — this month [December 2017] marks the start of our 39th year in a continuous emergency state...
“transnational criminal organizations”
First one that comes to mind is the United Nations
