Can Trump Dissolve USAID? 10,000 Jobs Hang In The Balance
By Terina Allen
What will happen to 10,000 employees? Elon Musk said early Monday morning that President Donald Trump agreed to “shut down” the U.S. Agency for International Development. A few hours later, The Wall Street Journal reported that the Trump administration had closed USAID headquarters. This all comes after several days of speculation and reporting that Trump wants to dissolve the agency and fold some or all of its functions into the State Department.
