Bill > SJRes71

This joint resolution terminates the national emergency related to energy that was originally declared by the President on January 20, 2025, through Executive Order 14156. The resolution, passed by both the Senate and House of Representatives, effectively ends the emergency status that was initially established under the National Emergencies Act, a federal law that provides specific procedures for presidential declarations of national emergencies. By passing this resolution, Congress is exercising its oversight role and determining that the conditions which originally warranted the energy-related emergency no longer exist or require such an extraordinary governmental response. The termination means that any special powers or authorities granted to the executive branch under this specific national emergency declaration will be rescinded, returning governance of energy-related matters to standard regulatory procedures.
