💨 Abstract

Senator Brian Schatz has announced he will block Senate votes on President Trump's diplomatic nominees in protest of plans to close and merge the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) into the State Department. Trump has appointed billionaire Elon Musk to reduce federal spending, and Musk has been leading the effort to shut down USAID, which provides vital aid for projects globally.
