CHAPTER

Reforming the National Emergencies Act

This chapter investigates the implications of the National Emergencies Act (NEA) on presidential power and ongoing Congressional efforts to reform it, particularly through the Article 1 Act. It highlights bipartisan support for limiting executive authority and addresses the challenges of defining a national emergency within the current legal framework. The discussion also examines the historical context of the NEA, its intended checks on presidential power, and the failures of these mechanisms in practice.
