Bill overview
This bill, the Limiting Emergency Powers Act of 2025, aims to limit the duration of national emergencies declared by the President. It requires that any national emergency declared after the bill’s enactment automatically end 30 days after it’s announced unless Congress approves it with a joint resolution. Additionally, all existing national emergencies will expire after two years unless the President requests and Congress approves a renewal through a joint resolution. This legislation is intended to prevent the indefinite use of emergency powers.
