The National Emergencies Reform Act of 2025 is designed to strengthen congressional oversight of national emergencies declared by the President, aiming to enhance checks and balances and prevent potential misuse of emergency powers. The Act establishes stricter requirements for declaring a national emergency, mandating that the President specify the legal authority invoked and transmit this information to Congress. A declaration will only remain in effect for 20 legislative days unless Congress approves it through a joint resolution.
