Here is the nearly exact wording from Obama's 2009 H1N1 national emergency declaration, with Trump's modifications for his own emergency declaration in red.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD TRUMP, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States, including sections 201 and 301 of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.) and consistent with 8 U.S. Code, Section 1182, Inadmissable Aliens, in response to Homeland Security press release, dated Feb. 15, 2018, entitled WE MUST SECURE THE BORDER AND BUILD THE WALL TO MAKE AMERICA SAFE AGAIN , do hereby find and proclaim that, given that the rapidly increasing threat of huge caravans of undocumented and unvetted immigrants seeking entry into the US through our porous southern border with Mexico may overwhelm immigration centers and existing agencies for processing immigrants, as well as place huge burdens on already overburdened fiscal resources needed to care for unemployable undocumented immigrants, hereby declare that other agencies of the federal government may supply resources to combat the growing problem of unsecured borders between the US and Mexico.
