💨 Abstract

The Trump administration has announced it will place the majority of USAID staff, except leaders and critical personnel, on paid administrative leave and cut 1,600 positions in the United States. The decision follows Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency's initiative to reduce the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), a key tool for American foreign influence.
