Bill > HR63

This bill, the Limiting Emergency Powers Act of 2021, amends the National Emergencies Act to require the President's declaration of a national emergency to terminate after 30 days unless Congress enacts a joint resolution affirming the declaration. The bill also specifies that upon termination of an emergency, any unobligated funds must be returned, certain contracts must be terminated, and the emergency powers can no longer be exercised, with some exceptions. Additionally, the bill limits the duration of a national emergency to 2 years unless Congress enacts a joint resolution affirming the renewal of the declaration.
