Donald Trump’s administration is moving to formally shut down the U.S. Agency for International Development, and has notified the remaining employees that their positions could soon be eliminated.
After weeks of bashing the foreign aid agency, attempting to freeze its funding and initiating mass layoffs, the administration notified Congress around noon Friday that it intends to move all of the agency’s remaining responsibilities, effectively shutting it down. The remaining functions would be transferred to the Department of State.
